A compact sans with heavily rounded corners and soft, pill-like terminals. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with squared counters and rounded interior corners that keep the shapes open and legible. Proportions are condensed with a tall, clean vertical emphasis; joins are smooth and simplified, giving letters a steady rhythm in both caps and lowercase. Numerals and punctuation follow the same softened geometry, producing a cohesive, highly graphic texture in text.
Well suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a compact, high-impact voice is needed without sharp edges. Its sturdy, rounded construction also works for signage and UI labels at larger sizes, especially in situations that benefit from an approachable, informal feel.
The overall tone feels friendly and upbeat, with a casual confidence that reads more playful than corporate. Its rounded, compact forms suggest a mid‑century/retro flavor while staying clean and contemporary, making it feel approachable and a bit sporty.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, space-efficient presence with softened edges—combining strong, condensed proportions with rounded terminals to keep the voice friendly and accessible. It emphasizes clarity and consistency over calligraphic detail, aiming for a clean, graphic look that stands out quickly.
Uppercase forms are notably tall and compact, while lowercase stays similarly narrow with simple, rounded construction. The typeface maintains consistent corner radii across straight strokes and curves, which helps it look unified at display sizes and in short text settings.
