A heavy, rounded sans with chunky forms and noticeably irregular contours. Strokes appear as if applied with a brush or marker, producing wobbly edges, uneven terminals, and subtle shape variation from glyph to glyph. Counters are generally open and rounded, with simplified geometry and soft corners that keep the texture from feeling sharp. Spacing reads fairly generous for the weight, supporting a loud, poster-like color while preserving legibility in short lines.
Best suited to display settings where bold, approachable impact is needed—posters, packaging, labels, merch, and social graphics. It also works well for short editorial headlines and playful branding, especially when paired with a clean text face for body copy.
The overall tone is informal and energetic, with a tactile, handmade feel that suggests craft materials and off-the-page ink texture. Its roughness adds friendliness and a bit of rebellious grit, making the font feel more human and spontaneous than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability with a deliberately imperfect, hand-rendered surface. It prioritizes personality and texture over precision, aiming for a friendly, crafted look that stands out at larger sizes.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, chunky construction, while the numerals and round letters show especially organic, slightly lopsided curves. The texture is consistent across the set, giving long text a strong, uniform “inked” rhythm without relying on decorative flourishes.
