A heavy, rounded sans with softened corners and a slightly irregular, hand-shaped feel. Strokes are thick and consistently weighted, with broad curves, closed apertures in letters like e and a, and compact counters that read clearly at display sizes. The geometry leans toward circular and pill-like forms, while joins and terminals are subtly asymmetric, giving the outlines a lively, less-mechanical rhythm. Uppercase is sturdy and wide-set, and lowercase shows a simple single-storey a and g with short, rounded ascenders and descenders.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a friendly, rounded voice. It can also work for signage and social graphics where strong fill and simple forms help legibility, especially when set with ample leading.
The overall tone is warm and informal, suggesting a cheerful, kid-friendly personality rather than a corporate or technical voice. Its soft shapes and buoyant rhythm create a welcoming, slightly retro mood that feels suited to upbeat messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable sans look with rounded, softened forms and a slightly handmade liveliness. It prioritizes charm and immediacy over strict geometric precision, aiming for clear, upbeat display typography.
The numerals are similarly rounded and weighty, with distinctive, open shapes that maintain the same soft-cornered construction as the letters. The font’s dense black presence and small internal spaces suggest it will be most comfortable at larger sizes or with generous spacing when used in longer lines.
