A heavy, compact sans with rounded outer corners and slightly squarish curves, giving forms a soft, molded feel rather than geometric precision. Strokes are broadly even with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to finish bluntly, keeping the texture dense and confident. Curves on letters like C, G, S, and the bowls of B/D/P show a gently flattened, almost cushion-like geometry, while straight stems stay firm and vertical. The overall rhythm is tight and sturdy, with clear counters that remain open despite the weight.
Best suited to display sizes where its compact, chunky shapes can carry impact—such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and storefront-style signage. It also works for short UI labels or callouts when a friendly, emphatic tone is desired, but its dense texture can become heavy in long paragraphs.
The face reads warm and informal, with a lightly retro, sign-painter sensibility. Its rounded, chunky shapes feel friendly and a bit cheeky, making it suitable for designs that want personality without going fully cartoon. The consistent heft gives it a confident, attention-getting presence.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability with a personable, rounded voice. By combining sturdy verticals with softened corners and slightly squarish curves, it aims to feel both solid and approachable for contemporary branding and playful display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a unified, simplified construction that prioritizes bold silhouettes over fine detail. Numerals match the letterforms in weight and softness, with rounded joins and blunt ends that keep the set cohesive in headings and short lines.
