A compact, heavy sans with mostly uniform stroke thickness and softly rounded terminals. The letterforms lean on simple geometric construction, but are intentionally irregular: stems wobble slightly, curves vary in fullness, and many glyphs show subtle angular kinks or off-center joins that keep the texture lively. Counters are generally small and closed, with a tall, condensed overall silhouette; diagonals and curves (like in A, K, S, and 2) feel cut-and-placed rather than mechanically drawn. The lowercase is straightforward and readable, with single-storey forms and a broad, looping ‘g’ that adds character; numerals follow the same chunky, slightly uneven rhythm.
Best suited to short to medium display text where personality is the priority, such as posters, playful headlines, packaging, event promos, and branding elements. It can also work for children’s or hobby-oriented materials where a casual, handcrafted voice is desirable, but the busy texture may feel strong for dense, small-size reading.
The font communicates a playful, homemade energy—more like hand-cut signage or a cartoon title than a neutral UI face. Its unevenness reads as intentional and friendly, giving copy a bouncy, informal tone that feels approachable and slightly mischievous.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, compact sans with an intentionally imperfect, hand-made construction—capturing a cut-paper/hand-lettered vibe while remaining broadly legible in words and numerals.
Spacing and sidebearings appear intentionally inconsistent to enhance a lively, hand-set feel, which becomes more pronounced in longer lines of text. The weight and narrow proportions keep words compact, while the irregular curves add texture at display sizes.
