A heavy, rounded sans with compact proportions and a clear superellipse/squircle construction throughout. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with broad curves, softened corners, and tightly enclosed counters that stay open enough for display use. Terminals tend to be blunt and squared-off rather than tapered, giving letters a sturdy, blocky silhouette. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g”, round dots on “i/j”, and a short-armed “t”, reinforcing a simplified, geometric rhythm. Numerals are similarly bold and rounded, with wide bowls and stable, flat-ish joins that keep forms grounded.
Best suited to headlines and short text where weight and rounded geometry can carry personality—posters, branding marks, packaging, and large-format signage. It can also work for playful UI or badges when used at sizes that preserve counter clarity.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, combining a toy-like softness with poster-level impact. Its rounded geometry feels friendly and informal, while the dense weight and compact spacing add confidence and a hint of retro signage energy.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, geometric voice: a bold rounded sans that reads quickly at a distance while projecting warmth and approachability. Its simplified forms and consistent superellipse logic suggest an emphasis on cohesive silhouettes for contemporary display typography.
The design leans on large interior shapes and prominent bowls (notably in O, Q, 8, 9), creating strong, easily recognizable silhouettes. Curved letters like C/S and the rounded joins in m/n/u keep the texture smooth, while more angular letters (E/F/T/Z) retain softened corners to stay consistent with the squarish-round theme.
