A compact sans with heavy, even strokes and rounded terminals, built from simple geometric bowls that are subtly pinched and skewed for a handmade feel. Curves are smooth but not perfectly symmetrical, and many verticals show slight angularity or tilt, creating a lively rhythm across words. Counters are generally open and clear, with single-storey lowercase forms and a straightforward, sturdy digit set that matches the letters’ weight and softness.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings such as posters, headings, packaging, and brand marks where its playful texture can be part of the voice. It can also work for emphasis in UI or editorial callouts, especially when a friendly, informal tone is desired.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a casual, slightly wobbly personality that reads as intentionally imperfect rather than mechanical. It suggests a retro, DIY sensibility—more friendly poster lettering than strict corporate neutrality—while still staying legible at display sizes.
The font appears designed to combine the clarity of a simple sans with the warmth of hand-cut or hand-drawn lettering. Its slightly uneven geometry and rounded finishes aim to add character and approachability without sacrificing straightforward readability.
The design emphasizes chunky silhouettes and rounded shapes, producing strong word images with noticeable texture. Spacing appears generous enough to prevent dark spots, but the irregular stroke angles and varied glyph widths add a distinctive, animated cadence in running text.
