A heavy, compact sans with superelliptical construction: bowls and counters read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal contrast, producing dense color and strong silhouette clarity. Terminals are broadly cut and softly squared, and curves transition with smooth, cushioned joins that keep shapes stable at large sizes. The lowercase uses simple, single-storey forms and the figures are similarly blocky, with tight counters and a robust, poster-like rhythm.
Works best for headlines, posters, packaging, and bold brand moments where high impact and quick recognition matter. Its compact, chunky shapes also suit signage and short UI labels when used at generous sizes and with enough breathing room. For longer paragraphs, it’s likely most effective in brief bursts such as pull quotes or section titles.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, pairing friendly rounded geometry with a blunt, no-nonsense mass. It feels playful and slightly retro in its soft-rectangular curves, while still projecting confidence and immediacy. The texture is loud and attention-grabbing, suited to messages that want to land quickly.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with friendly geometry: a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle skeleton combined with very heavy strokes for immediate legibility and a distinctive, modern-retro flavor. The simplified forms and sturdy proportions prioritize strong silhouettes and consistent texture in display typography.
Round letters like O/C/G skew toward squarish rounds, and internal spaces tend to be narrow, which amplifies darkness in text settings. Spacing reads compact and energetic in the sample, giving lines a strong, continuous band of black that favors display sizes over extended reading.
