A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with broad, uniform strokes and softened corners throughout. The shapes favor squarish counters and straight-sided bowls, producing a compact, built-from-blocks geometry rather than circular construction. Terminals are blunt and consistently rounded, with minimal modulation and a steady rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Spacing reads slightly tight in dense text, while the strong silhouettes keep letterforms distinct at display sizes.
Best suited to display work where impact and personality are priorities: headlines, posters, packaging, labels, and bold UI callouts. It also works well for short branding phrases and logotypes that want a playful, sturdy presence, especially in high-contrast color applications.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a distinctly retro, arcade-toy sensibility. Its chunky forms feel confident and friendly rather than severe, giving headlines a bold, cheerful presence. The rounded squareness adds a tactile, modular character that suggests signage, stickers, and pop graphics.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a cohesive rounded-rectangular system, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a friendly, retro-graphic feel. It aims to be easily recognizable at a glance and to maintain a consistent, modular look across letters and numbers in bold display settings.
Uppercase forms look particularly monolithic and sign-like, while the lowercase keeps the same blocky logic with simplified joins and rounded shoulders. Numerals follow the same squared, soft-corner construction, helping mixed alphanumeric settings feel unified. The font’s strong black shapes and compact apertures can fill in visually at smaller sizes, so it benefits from generous size or extra leading in text blocks.
