A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with gently tapered joins and rounded terminals that keep the texture soft despite the mass. Counters are compact and often circular to oval, creating a dense, poster-like color on the page. The lowercase is built with a tall, sturdy structure and a single-storey ‘a’, while figures are large and sturdy with simple, geometric construction.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and brand marks where a bold, friendly voice is needed. It performs well in packaging and signage thanks to its strong silhouettes and sturdy numerals, and it can work for short callouts or UI badges when given enough size and spacing.
The overall tone is upbeat and welcoming, with a chunky, buoyant rhythm that feels playful rather than strict. Its rounded forms and dense weight give it a friendly, slightly retro personality that reads confident and informal.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, approachable feel—combining a dense, attention-grabbing weight with rounded geometry for a contemporary-retro voice. The letterforms prioritize clear, simple shapes and strong silhouettes for display-first use.
In continuous text the tight counters and heavy joins can reduce internal whitespace, so it shines best with generous tracking or at larger sizes. The strong silhouette and rounded geometry make it especially effective for short, high-impact strings.
