A heavy, rounded sans with compact internal counters and softly squared curves. The letterforms are built from broad strokes and simple geometry, but the outlines are intentionally irregular, with choppy edges and uneven ink-like bite that creates a printed, worn texture. Proportions feel roomy and stable, with a tall x-height and short extenders that keep lowercase dense and legible. Spacing reads slightly loose and forgiving, supporting the chunky shapes without crowding.
Best suited for short-to-medium display settings where its weight and rough texture can do the visual work: posters, splashy headlines, packaging, stickers, and social media graphics. It can also function for brief subheads or callouts, but extended body text may feel heavy due to the dense color and compact counters.
The overall tone is cheerful and informal, like hand-cut lettering or a screen-printed poster. The roughened perimeter adds a tactile, DIY character that feels approachable rather than precise. It carries a nostalgic, analog energy suited to playful branding and attention-grabbing display work.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly sans voice with an intentionally imperfect, inked finish—combining simple rounded construction with a distressed outline to evoke analog printing and handcrafted signage.
Round letters keep their mass toward the outside, producing small counters that boost darkness at text sizes and make the texture more prominent. Diagonals and joins appear slightly flattened and irregular, reinforcing the handmade rhythm across the alphabet and numerals.
