A heavy, rounded sans with a superellipse skeleton: straight strokes terminate in broad, softly squared corners, while bowls and counters read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles. The stroke is essentially uniform and dense, producing compact apertures and sturdy interior counters. Curves connect with minimal modulation, and many joins feel gently pinched or flattened, giving the alphabet a deliberately sculpted, blocky rhythm. Uppercase forms are wide and stable, while lowercase maintains a simple, single-storey construction and short extenders for an overall tight, even color.
Best suited to headlines and short display copy where the dense, rounded forms can act as a strong graphic element. It fits well in posters, packaging, product labels, event promos, and logo wordmarks that want a friendly, retro-leaning voice.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a retro display feel that leans toward playful signage and pop packaging. Its chunky geometry and soft corners keep it friendly rather than industrial, while the compressed openings add a punchy, graphic presence.
The design appears intended as a modern, geometric display sans built from rounded-rectangle forms, prioritizing impact and a distinctive silhouette over airy readability. Its consistent stroke and softened corners aim to deliver a bold, approachable personality that reproduces cleanly in graphic applications.
Diagonal letters (like V/W/X and the numerals) keep thick, consistent diagonals that read strongly at headline sizes. The dot on i/j appears as a simple round, and the punctuation/sample text shows the face holding together as a bold, cohesive texture in short bursts rather than delicate reading settings.
