A heavy, rounded-rectilinear sans with squarish curves and softened corners throughout. Strokes are broadly consistent, with subtle tapering and gentle swelling in places that keeps the texture lively rather than purely geometric. Counters are compact and often rectangular, with narrow apertures and sturdy joins that create a dense, impactful color on the page. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short ascenders/descenders, and the numerals share the same blocky, softened construction for a cohesive set.
Well suited for posters, display typography, branding marks, packaging, and merchandise where a bold, friendly voice is needed. It works especially well for short headlines, event promos, and playful editorial callouts that benefit from strong, compact letterforms.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, mixing a retro sign-painting feel with a toy-like friendliness. Its chunky forms read as confident and approachable, leaning toward fun, casual messaging rather than formal or technical communication.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that blends geometric rounded-rectangle structure with softened, retro-leaning details. Its tall lowercase and compact counters aim to maintain clarity while delivering a distinctive, chunky personality at larger sizes.
In text settings the rhythm is tight and punchy, with strong silhouettes that stay legible at large sizes but can feel dense in long passages. The rounded-square construction gives it a distinctive “cushioned” geometry that stands out in headlines and short bursts of copy.
