A heavy, rounded sans with a deliberately uneven, hand-cut feel. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with softened corners and subtly wavy edges that keep the outlines from feeling mechanical. Counters are compact and often slightly off-center, and terminals tend to end in blunt, rounded forms. Overall spacing feels generous and the letterforms have a mild wobble in baseline rhythm and stroke contour, producing an organic, tactile texture in words and paragraphs.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, product packaging, storefront signage, and social graphics where a warm, approachable voice is needed. It also works well for children’s materials, playful branding, and display copy that benefits from an organic, handcrafted texture.
The font reads as cheerful and informal, with a craft-like personality that suggests hand lettering or cut-paper signage. Its bouncy shapes and softened geometry give it a welcoming, kid-friendly tone while still feeling bold and confident.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold display voice with a human, imperfect finish—prioritizing charm and texture over strict geometric regularity, while keeping forms simple enough to remain readable at larger sizes.
Uppercase forms are simple and sturdy, while lowercase shows a distinctly casual construction (single-storey a and g) that reinforces the handmade character. Figures are thick and rounded, matching the letterforms and keeping a consistent color in mixed alphanumeric settings.
