A heavy, compact sans with rounded corners and softly swollen strokes that keep a consistently solid color on the page. The geometry leans toward simple, blocky forms, but with intentional irregularities: slight tilts, uneven stroke endings, and subtly asymmetric curves that create a handmade, cutout-like feel. Counters are relatively tight in letters like B, P, R, and e, and terminals often appear blunted or gently tapered. Uppercase and lowercase share the same sturdy, simplified construction, and the figures are bold and straightforward with minimal interior detailing.
Best suited for headlines, short callouts, and brand marks where a strong, friendly voice is needed. It works well on posters, packaging, menus, and playful editorial headers, especially when you want a bold sans that feels characterful rather than neutral.
The overall tone is upbeat and mischievous, with a bouncy rhythm that feels informal and approachable. Its deliberate wonkiness reads as comic and energetic rather than strictly utilitarian, giving text a lively, poster-like presence.
Likely designed to deliver a high-impact display sans with a deliberately imperfect, lively texture. The simplified, rounded forms prioritize personality and immediacy, aiming to feel approachable and fun while remaining highly legible at larger sizes.
Spacing and widths feel intentionally uneven from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a casual, handcrafted rhythm. The font’s dense black shapes and tight counters increase impact at display sizes, while the playful distortions become more noticeable as lines of text get longer.
