A heavy, rounded sans with a squared-off superellipse construction: broad strokes, softened corners, and mostly flat terminals. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry rather than perfect circles, giving letters a compact, engineered feel. Counters are relatively small and apertures tend toward closed forms, increasing density at text sizes. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short extenders, and the overall rhythm is tight and uniform, with consistent stroke thickness and minimal modulation.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of copy where strong silhouette and weight are assets—posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand marks. It can work for UI labels or buttons when set large enough and with comfortable tracking to maintain clarity in the tighter counters.
The tone is bold and approachable, with a friendly softness that reads as playful rather than aggressive. Its chunky, rounded silhouettes evoke retro display typography and casual, high-impact branding, while still feeling clean and contemporary due to the restrained, no-frills construction.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, rounded voice—combining high mass and compact proportions with a superellipse skeleton for a distinctive, modern-retro texture. It prioritizes immediacy and recognizability in display settings over delicate detail.
Figures are thick and stable with generous rounding and strong horizontal/vertical emphasis, matching the letterforms closely in weight and presence. The sample text shows strong color on the page and benefits from ample spacing to prevent counters from filling in at smaller sizes.
