A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, but the outlines show intentional irregularity—wobbly edges, slight bulges, and uneven terminals—creating a hand-inked, stamp-like texture. Counters are relatively small and rounded, and spacing feels slightly variable from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic rhythm while keeping a solid, blocky silhouette. Numerals and capitals are especially weighty and simplified, optimized for strong shapes rather than fine detail.
Best suited to display typography where impact and personality are priorities—posters, headline systems, packaging, labels, and bold brand marks. It also works well for playful editorial callouts and merchandise graphics, especially where a printed, tactile feel is desirable.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, with a playful, homemade character that reads like screen print, rubber stamp, or brush-filled lettering. It balances a friendly warmth with a slightly roughened attitude, giving text an informal, spirited presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, immediately recognizable voice: a rounded, chunky sans base enhanced with purposeful imperfections to emulate hand-made printing and give digital type a tactile, analog energy.
The font’s soft, superellipse-like geometry keeps curves and straight strokes feeling cohesive, while the deliberate outline wobble adds texture at display sizes. In longer lines, the dense weight and small apertures create a dark color, so it benefits from generous tracking and comfortable line spacing when used beyond short bursts.
