A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with compact proportions and large counters carved into dense strokes. Curves are built from superelliptical shapes—corners are generously radiused, while straight sides stay firm and vertical—creating a blocky silhouette that still feels soft. Apertures and joins are tight, with small internal notches and squared cut-ins that add rhythm and keep forms from becoming overly blobby at display sizes. Numerals and capitals read as stout and monolithic, while lowercase maintains the same chunky construction with short extenders and simplified, geometric bowls.
Best suited to display typography where impact and personality matter: headlines, posters, social graphics, event titles, packaging, and bold branding marks. It also works well for short signage or labels where a friendly, chunky voice is desired and the text can be set large with comfortable spacing.
The tone is upbeat and emphatic, with a poster-like confidence and a hint of 1970s/arcade-era warmth. Its rounded massing feels friendly rather than aggressive, while the dense color and compact spacing give it a punchy, attention-grabbing presence.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual weight with softened geometry, balancing assertive presence with approachable rounded forms. Its simplified, superelliptical construction suggests an intention to be instantly legible in big, bold settings while projecting a playful, retro-leaning character.
The design favors silhouette recognition over delicate detail: many characters rely on broad forms and small internal openings, which creates strong impact at large sizes but can reduce clarity when set small or tightly tracked. The overall texture is consistent and even, producing a solid typographic “block” well suited to headline settings.
