A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions, large enclosed counters, and smooth, rounded outer curves paired with blunt, squared terminals. Letterforms are built from simple circular/elliptical bowls and thick rectilinear stems, creating a strong stencil-like negative space in places (notably in E, F, S, and Z). The rhythm is dense and highly uniform in stroke weight, with tight apertures and short joins that keep words reading as bold blocks. Lowercase forms echo the uppercase with simplified shapes and sturdy verticals, while numerals are equally chunky with generous interior space for clarity at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where bold silhouette and character are the priority—posters, packaging, signage, brand marks, and playful editorial titles. It performs especially well when set large with generous tracking to let the internal shapes breathe.
The tone is exuberant and attention-grabbing, with a toy-like, poster-ready energy that leans retro and comic. Its rounded geometry keeps it friendly rather than aggressive, even at very large weights, making it feel approachable and fun.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with minimal detail, using simple geometric construction and punchy, carved-in negative spaces to create a distinctive display voice. The goal appears to be a friendly, high-visibility style for attention-forward typography rather than extended reading.
Several glyphs use distinctive cut-ins and notches that add character and improve differentiation in dense settings, especially in the diagonals and horizontal bars. The overall texture is intentionally compact, so spacing and counters become key to maintaining legibility as sizes get smaller.
