A heavy, soft-cornered display sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry and broad, even strokes. Curves resolve into squarish bowls and counters, giving letters a compact, compressed interior with a strong, blocky silhouette. Terminals are blunt and uniformly rounded, with minimal modulation and a steady rhythm across uppercase and lowercase. Figures follow the same squared, padded construction, reading clearly as bold, monoline forms with tight apertures and sturdy horizontals.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where its mass and rounded-square construction can read as a graphic element. It works well for posters, bold branding systems, packaging, and team or event graphics where a sturdy, high-impact sans is needed. Use generous tracking and comfortable line spacing for multi-line settings to avoid dark, crowded blocks of text.
The overall tone is loud and confident, mixing a friendly roundedness with an industrial, poster-like weight. Its squared curves evoke retro signage and arcade-era graphics while staying clean and contemporary. The dense forms create an assertive, attention-grabbing voice that still feels approachable rather than sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive rounded-rectilinear personality, combining the softness of rounded corners with the authority of heavy, geometric slabs. It prioritizes bold recognizability and a consistent, sign-like silhouette over open counters and delicate detail.
Letterforms show a consistent reliance on squarish bowls and narrow openings (notably in C, S, and e-like shapes), which increases punch at large sizes but can make interiors feel tight in long text. The lowercase maintains strong presence similar to the caps, supporting a uniform, headline-driven texture.
