A heavy, rounded sans with superelliptical geometry: counters and curves feel squared-off at the extremes, with consistently softened corners. Strokes are thick and steady, producing compact internal spaces and a strong, blocky silhouette. Terminals are predominantly flat and blunt, while round letters like C, G, O, and S read as rounded-rect forms rather than perfect circles. The lowercase follows the same chunky logic with simple, sturdy joins; the dot on i/j is round and prominent, and figures are wide and emphatic with the same soft-cornered construction.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and display typography where maximum impact is needed. It also fits branding and packaging that benefit from a friendly, robust voice, and can work for signage or badges when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone is confident and approachable—big, punchy, and slightly nostalgic. Its rounded-rectangle curves soften the mass, giving it a friendly, toy-like solidity that feels upbeat rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact display sans with softened, superelliptical shapes—combining strong weight and compact counters with approachable rounded corners for attention-grabbing, brand-forward typography.
In the sample text the dense color and tight-looking counters create a strong typographic “wall,” making line breaks and spacing important for readability. The design’s squared curves and uniform heft keep words visually cohesive, which helps it hold together at large sizes and in short phrases.
