A heavy, geometric sans with softened corners and subtly irregular, wedge-like terminals that create a hand-cut, poster-ready feel. Strokes are thick and even, with broad bowls and compact apertures that keep the texture dense. Letterforms show gentle, intentional inconsistencies in curves and joins, giving the set a lively rhythm rather than strict mechanical uniformity. Numerals and capitals are wide and sturdy, while lowercase forms maintain clear silhouettes with a slightly bouncing baseline impression in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short bursts of text where its bold, friendly shapes can carry personality. It works well for packaging, event graphics, and branding marks that want an informal, approachable voice. In longer paragraphs it will feel dense and attention-grabbing, so generous sizing and spacing help preserve clarity.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, with a quirky, slightly retro personality. Its chunky shapes and softened edges feel approachable and comedic, suggesting warmth rather than seriousness. The energetic rhythm reads like display lettering adapted into a functional alphabet.
Likely designed to provide a high-impact, characterful sans for display use—combining sturdy geometry with softened, slightly irregular details to avoid a sterile look. The aim appears to be readability at large sizes while maintaining a distinctive, playful voice.
Round letters like O/C/G are especially full and weighty, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) have assertive, cut-in angles that add snap and motion. The t features a short, blocky crossbar, and the g is single-storey with a prominent bowl, reinforcing the casual, graphic character.
