A heavy, rounded sans with blunted terminals and soft, squarish curves throughout. Strokes are uniform and generously thick, with compact counters and simplified interior shapes that prioritize solid mass over delicacy. Many glyphs feature distinctive cut-ins and notched joins—most evident in letters like B, E, F, R, and several lowercase forms—creating a subtle stencil-like construction without fully breaking the strokes. The overall rhythm is broad and steady, with minimal modulation, sturdy verticals, and smoothly rounded bowls that keep the silhouette cohesive at large sizes.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, posters, product packaging, and branding where bold shapes and strong silhouettes are an advantage. Its notched detailing and compact counters make it particularly effective for logos, playful signage, and short bursts of copy where character is more important than long-form readability.
The tone is bold and approachable, combining a toy-like softness with a slightly industrial, cut-out feel from the recurring notches. It reads as upbeat and attention-grabbing rather than refined, giving a retro display energy that feels suited to informal, high-impact messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a friendly, rounded voice, while adding a signature look through repeated notches and cut-ins. It aims for a distinctive, easily recognizable texture that stands out in advertising and graphic applications.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same chunky, rounded logic, and the figures follow the same simplified, heavy geometry for consistent color in lines of type. The distinctive internal cut shapes add personality and help differentiate forms, though the tight counters and strong weight suggest it will perform best when allowed breathing room (larger sizes or looser spacing).
