A heavy, rounded sans with an intentionally uneven, hand-cut silhouette. Strokes stay broadly monolinear, but edges wobble and terminals flare or taper subtly, creating a lively, imperfect rhythm. Counters are compact and slightly pinched in places, while bowls and shoulders stay generously filled, giving the face a sturdy, poster-like presence. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph and the overall baseline/sidebearing feel is loose, contributing to a casual, handmade texture across words and lines.
Best suited to display settings where personality matters: posters, event titles, playful branding, packaging, menus, and children’s or entertainment-oriented graphics. It can work for short bursts of text in larger sizes, but the irregular contours and tight counters suggest avoiding long-form reading at small sizes.
The font reads as cheerful and mischievous, with a cartoon-signage energy that feels informal and inviting. Its exaggerated bulk and wavy contours add humor and warmth, suggesting craft, DIY, and lighthearted display rather than precision or restraint.
The design appears aimed at delivering a bold, approachable voice with a handmade, cut-paper feel—prioritizing character and visual impact over typographic neutrality. The irregular modulation and softened geometry seem intended to add motion and charm in branding and headline applications.
The uppercase shows more blocky, sign-painter massing while the lowercase keeps a tall, friendly stance with simplified shapes and pronounced, soft terminals. Numerals follow the same chunky, irregular logic, with bold silhouettes designed to hold up at headline sizes.
