A compact, heavy sans with rounded, swollen forms and softened corners throughout. Strokes remain largely even, with slightly wobbly contours that feel hand-shaped rather than mechanically perfect. Counters are small and often squarish-oval, and terminals tend to finish bluntly, giving the letters a dense, punchy silhouette. The rhythm is tight and vertical, with simplified geometry and minimal detail, keeping the texture bold and consistent in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, signage, packaging callouts, and playful branding. It also fits children’s or family-oriented materials where a friendly, chunky voice is desired. For longer passages, larger sizes and extra spacing help maintain clarity due to the tight counters and heavy texture.
The overall tone is playful and approachable, with a cartoon-like cheerfulness and a slightly quirky, homemade energy. Its chunky shapes and bouncy irregularity read as friendly and attention-seeking rather than formal or technical.
Designed to deliver a bold, friendly message with a hand-drawn, cartoonish feel while staying cleanly sans and highly legible at display sizes. The rounded construction and compact proportions prioritize visual punch and warmth over precision or neutrality.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same stout, rounded construction, and the numerals follow suit with compact proportions and simplified interiors. The font’s dense blackness and reduced interior space make it most comfortable when given generous tracking or used at larger sizes.
