A heavy, rounded sans with monoline strokes and generously softened corners. The letterforms are built from broad geometric shapes with slightly irregular, lively curves, producing a chunky silhouette and strong color on the page. Counters are relatively small and often rounded, while terminals tend to be blunt and softly cut. Overall proportions feel compact and sturdy, with a consistent, bold rhythm that stays readable while emphasizing mass and shape.
Best suited for display use such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where a bold, friendly presence is needed. It also works well for short UI labels, stickers, and social graphics that benefit from high contrast against backgrounds and a playful, approachable tone. For longer passages, larger sizes and ample spacing help maintain clarity.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, with a cheerful, slightly retro sensibility. Its chunky curves and soft finishing give it a friendly, informal voice that reads as expressive rather than strict or technical. The result feels energetic and attention-getting without becoming sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, welcoming feel—combining a strong, compact weight with rounded geometry and small idiosyncrasies that keep the texture lively. It prioritizes recognizability and charm in display settings while staying structurally straightforward and consistent.
Diagonal-heavy letters and numerals show subtle shape quirks that add personality, and the set maintains consistent stroke weight across straight and curved elements. At text sizes the density increases due to tight counters, while at display sizes the rounded construction and distinctive shapes become the main feature.
