A heavy, rounded sans with broad, compact shapes and softly squared curves that read like superelliptical forms. Strokes are thick and even, with smooth transitions and mostly closed, sturdy counters (notably in O, B, and 8). Terminals are blunt and gently rounded rather than sharp, giving letters a padded, block-like silhouette. The lowercase is simple and robust, with short extenders and a consistent, compact rhythm; the numerals follow the same chunky construction for strong visual uniformity in display settings.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold branding where a warm, chunky presence is desired. It can work for short bursts of copy in packaging or signage, especially when set with generous size and spacing to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a slightly retro, poster-like boldness. Its rounded rectangles and dense weight make it feel friendly and casual while still projecting confidence and impact.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, friendly geometry—combining display-level heaviness with rounded, superelliptical letterforms for a distinctive, approachable voice.
Round letters tend to look more like rounded squares than perfect circles, which creates a distinctive, cohesive texture across lines of text. In sample paragraphs the dense weight and tight interior spaces make it feel more at home at larger sizes, where the shapes and counters can breathe.
