A narrow, rounded sans with softened corners and subtly wobbly contours that read as intentionally irregular rather than geometric. Strokes are fairly even with mild contrast and frequent swelling at terminals, giving letters a buoyant, molded feel. Counters tend to be small and rounded, and many joins are blunted or slightly pinched, creating distinctive silhouettes (notably in bowls, arches, and curved diagonals). The overall rhythm is lively and uneven in a controlled way, with variable-looking glyph widths and a compact, vertical stance.
Best suited to headlines, short phrases, and display settings where its quirky shapes can be appreciated—such as posters, packaging, youth-oriented branding, event graphics, and playful editorial callouts. It can also work for logos and wordmarks that benefit from a friendly, handmade-adjacent tone.
The font conveys a playful, offbeat personality—casual and approachable, with a retro-cartoon flavor. Its gentle distortions and rounded shaping suggest humor and informality rather than strict neutrality, making text feel conversational and characterful.
The design appears aimed at delivering a personable, character-led sans that stands apart from neutral grotesks by adding softened geometry, gentle irregularity, and memorable silhouettes for strong display impact.
Capitals appear tall and condensed, while lowercase forms keep a simple, single-storey feel in several letters and rely on curved, tubular construction. Numerals match the soft, compact style and maintain the same slightly quirky modulation, helping mixed alphanumeric settings look cohesive.
