A decorative serif with softly flared, wedge-like terminals and a slightly irregular, hand-shaped feel. Strokes show gentle modulation and rounded joins, with a lively baseline rhythm that makes counters and stems feel subtly uneven without losing coherence. Uppercase forms are broad and open, while lowercase shows distinctive, sometimes chunky proportions (notably in rounds like a, e, o) and compact, footed verticals (i, l, t). Numerals are rounded and characterful, with prominent curves and small spur-like details that match the letterforms.
Best suited to headlines, short passages, and display settings where its quirky details can be appreciated—such as posters, book covers, packaging, and playful branding. It can work for pull quotes or larger editorial moments when a friendly, unconventional serif texture is desired.
The overall tone is mischievous and upbeat, leaning toward storybook charm rather than formal classicism. Its idiosyncratic shapes read as intentionally offbeat and personable, giving text a casual, humorous voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, character-first serif voice—combining recognizable serif structure with deliberately irregular, whimsical shaping to stand out in display typography.
Letterfit appears a bit loose and airy at display sizes, helping the unusual details stay legible. The design’s defining features are the flared serif treatment and the slightly “wonky” geometry that creates a wavy, animated texture across words.
