A compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with gently tapered joins and closed apertures that keep counters relatively small. Curves read as superelliptical rather than circular, giving bowls and rounded forms a squared-off, chunky feel. Terminals are consistently rounded, and the overall rhythm is tight and sturdy with a slightly quirky, handcrafted regularity.
Best suited to headlines and short-form settings where its chunky, rounded geometry can be appreciated—posters, packaging, labels, and bold brand marks. It can work for subheads and callouts, but the tight apertures and dense texture suggest using generous size and spacing for longer passages.
The tone is warm and approachable, with a playful retro feel that recalls mid-century signage and display lettering. Its soft geometry keeps it friendly rather than technical, while the dense color and compact forms add confidence and punch.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability with a friendly, rounded-geometry personality. Its superelliptical curves and compact proportions prioritize a strong silhouette and consistent, soft-edged presence for display-centric typography.
In text, the narrow proportions create strong vertical emphasis, and the rounded corners help prevent the heavy strokes from feeling harsh. The numerals and capitals maintain the same softened, blocky logic, producing a cohesive, poster-like texture at larger sizes.
