A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and a sturdy, even rhythm. Strokes are largely uniform with softened corners and generous curves, creating smooth, bulb-like terminals rather than sharp cutoffs. Counters tend to be compact and the apertures are relatively closed, which makes the forms read as dense and punchy at display sizes. The lowercase has a straightforward, geometric build with single-storey shapes (notably the a and g), while capitals stay simple and blocky with rounded internal shaping.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, packaging fronts, and bold branding marks where its dense color and rounded forms can be appreciated. It can also work for signage and social graphics, especially when ample size and spacing preserve counter clarity.
The overall tone is friendly and bold, with a slightly nostalgic, poster-like presence. Its soft geometry and dense color give it an approachable, playful character while still feeling assertive and headline-ready.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, rounded voice—prioritizing solid silhouettes, smooth curves, and a compact interior structure for attention-grabbing display typography.
Round letters (O, C, G, Q) show a strong circular logic and consistent curvature, and the numerals follow the same thick, simplified construction for a cohesive set. The tight inner spaces mean it will visually darken quickly as text sizes get smaller or when set tightly.
