A chunky, rounded display face with an irregular, hand-drawn feel. Strokes are heavy and mostly monoline in impression, with subtle brush-like swelling and tapering that creates soft wedge terminals and occasional pointed joins. Counters are open and simplified, and curves are generously inflated, giving letters a buoyant silhouette. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, producing a lively rhythm; spacing and widths feel intentionally uneven rather than mechanically regular.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, headlines, cover art, packaging, and playful branding. It also works well for children’s media, event graphics, and punchy social posts where a casual, hand-rendered tone is desirable; it is less appropriate for long passages of small text due to its strong personality and uneven rhythm.
The font reads as friendly and mischievous, with a doodled, cartoon title-card energy. Its imperfect geometry and bouncy forms suggest humor and informality, lending a warm, approachable voice that feels more hand-made than typographic.
The design appears intended to capture the spontaneity of marker or brush lettering in a bold, simplified form, prioritizing charm and expressiveness over strict typographic regularity. Its slightly inconsistent shapes and rounded massing aim to feel human, fun, and immediately distinctive in display settings.
Distinctive stroke endings and small asymmetries (especially in diagonals and bowls) add character and movement, while maintaining clear letter identities. Numerals match the same soft, brushy construction and appear optimized for display rather than tabular consistency.
