A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with broad proportions and softly squared curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing sturdy counters that often feel inset into the mass of the letter. Terminals are blunt and rounded, and many curves resolve into superelliptical bowls rather than true circles, giving the design a uniform, sculpted look. Spacing and sidebearings read generous for the weight, aiding separation in dense settings, while the overall rhythm stays compact due to the large stroke-to-counter ratio.
Best used where impact and personality are the priority: headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and short signage phrases. It holds up well in large-scale settings and bold typographic compositions, while extended small-size text may feel dense due to tight internal openings.
The tone is bold and approachable, with a toy-like, mid-century display energy. Its softened corners keep it friendly rather than aggressive, while the dense black shapes project confidence and immediacy. The overall feel is nostalgic and graphic, suited to attention-grabbing headlines.
The font appears designed to deliver a strong, highly legible silhouette built from rounded-rectangular geometry, balancing friendliness with maximum visual weight. It prioritizes graphic consistency across letters and figures to create a cohesive display voice for branding and headline use.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent geometric logic, and the numerals match the same squared-round construction for a cohesive voice. The design favors closed, compact apertures and prominent internal cutouts, which strengthens silhouette recognition at larger sizes and reinforces the chunky, poster-like personality.
