A heavy, compact sans with rounded corners and a soft, slightly wobbly silhouette. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, but the outlines show gentle irregularities that make the shapes feel hand-cut rather than mechanically drawn. Counters are generally small and often asymmetric, and many terminals end in blunted, cushion-like shapes. The lowercase is compact with simple constructions (single-storey a and g) and a short, sturdy rhythm that stays legible at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, packaging, and short bursts of text where character is more important than strict neutrality. It works especially well for playful branding, kids-oriented materials, labels, and bold social graphics, and is less ideal for dense body copy due to its tight counters and chunky rhythm.
The overall tone is cheerful and offbeat, with a vintage cartoon or DIY sign-painting flavor. Its uneven, friendly forms read as informal and approachable, leaning more toward fun than refinement or authority.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly display voice with a handmade edge—evoking playful signage and retro cartoon titling while maintaining a straightforward sans structure for easy recognition.
Distinctive quirks—like the drooping, irregular curves in S and the playful joins in K and R—add personality and motion. Numerals are bold and rounded with slightly uneven widths, matching the same handmade texture as the letters.
