A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves. Strokes are thick and even, with small counters that create a dense, punchy texture. Terminals tend to be blunt and rounded, and several joins show slight kinked or hand-cut irregularity that keeps the rhythm lively rather than mechanical. The overall proportions feel narrow with tight internal spacing, while widths vary by character to maintain a natural, readable pattern in words.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logo wordmarks, packaging, and playful merchandising. It also works for labels and social graphics where a dense, friendly display sans helps text hold attention without feeling sharp or technical.
The tone is approachable and humorous, with a toy-like solidity that reads as friendly rather than formal. Its bouncy silhouettes and slightly quirky details give it a retro, handmade energy well suited to upbeat messaging and informal branding.
Designed to deliver a bold, friendly presence using superellipse-like curves and compact proportions, prioritizing impact and character over neutral text economy. The subtle irregularities suggest an intention to feel hand-shaped and personable while remaining clearly sans in structure.
In text, the dark color and compact counters make it most comfortable at display sizes, where the rounded forms and distinctive shapes stay clear. Numerals match the same stout, soft-cornered style, reinforcing a consistent, headline-forward voice.
