A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and counters tend to be tight, creating a dense, poster-like texture. Curves read as superelliptical rather than purely circular, while joins and terminals stay blunt and sturdy. Overall proportions are condensed with short extenders, and the numeral set matches the same rounded, chunky rhythm for a unified texture in mixed text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a dense, friendly display sans can carry visual weight. It also works well for signage and short UI or label text at larger sizes when you want a compact, high-impact voice.
The letterforms project a warm, approachable tone with a hint of retro display character. Its rounded squareness and bouncy rhythm feel energetic and informal, giving headlines a lively, slightly quirky voice without becoming messy or distressed.
The design appears intended to blend the clarity of a straightforward sans with a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle skeleton for distinctive display presence. It prioritizes strong silhouette, compact rhythm, and friendly softness for attention-grabbing typography.
In the samples, the compact spacing and large ink coverage produce strong color on the page, especially in all-caps and larger sizes. The lowercase is intentionally simple and sturdy, keeping text shapes clear while maintaining the distinctive rounded-rect geometry.
