A heavy, rounded sans with superelliptical curves and softened corners that keep the silhouette blocky yet friendly. Strokes are uniformly thick, with minimal modulation, and terminals end in blunt, squared-off cuts. Counters are relatively compact, producing dense, high-impact letterforms, while the proportions favor a tall lowercase with sturdy verticals and broad, stable bowls. Diagonals (V, W, X, Y) feel solid and slightly sculpted, and the numerals share the same squat, rounded-rectangle construction for a consistent texture across text and display.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a compact, high-contrast-from-background silhouette is needed. It performs well for packaging and signage that benefit from sturdy, rounded forms, and for short UI or label text where a friendly, assertive tone is desired.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, mixing a toy-like softness with a confident, poster-ready presence. Its rounded geometry suggests a retro-industrial friendliness—assertive without feeling sharp or aggressive.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a soft-edged geometric voice: a bold sans that remains approachable through rounded superellipse construction and minimal detail. The consistent stroke weight and compact counters prioritize strong presence and legibility at larger sizes.
In the sample text, the weight and tight internal space create strong word shapes, especially in all-caps lines and short phrases. The dense counters and heavy joins can make long passages feel dark, but they reinforce a cohesive, punchy rhythm for emphasis and branding.
