A chunky, heavy sans with slightly irregular, hand-cut geometry and gently rounded corners. Strokes are thick with subtle tapering and wedge-like terminals that create a cut-paper feel, and many curves show small pinched joins or flattened arcs that emphasize the handmade construction. Proportions are generally broad and compact, with a low lowercase profile and simple, single-storey forms; widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, contributing to an uneven, animated rhythm. Numerals match the same soft, sculpted silhouette and maintain strong color at display sizes.
Best suited for short, high-impact text where personality matters—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and brand marks for playful or family-oriented products. It can also work for event promos, stickers, and social graphics where a bold, informal voice is desirable.
The overall tone is upbeat and whimsical, with a cheeky, slightly chaotic bounce that feels more like hand lettering than a neutral system sans. Its irregular rhythm and carved terminals read as humorous and approachable, making it feel friendly and attention-seeking rather than formal.
This appears designed to deliver a bold display voice with a hand-cut, cartoon-leaning texture—prioritizing character, warmth, and immediacy over strict geometric uniformity. The varied widths and wedge terminals suggest an intention to feel handmade and energetic while staying clearly sans in construction.
The design keeps a consistent heavyweight presence across caps, lowercase, and figures, while the intentional wobble and varied widths add movement in lines of text. The distinctive wedge terminals and slightly skewed counters help it stand out in headlines, but also make it feel less orderly for dense, continuous reading.
