A very light, monoline slab serif with square-ended terminals and softly rounded corners. Strokes are consistently thin with low contrast, and the letterforms show intentional wobble and unevenness that reads as hand-drawn rather than geometric. Serifs are blunt and blocky, often appearing as short horizontal caps, while bowls and counters lean toward squared-off rectangles with gentle curvature. Overall spacing and widths vary by glyph, creating a lively, uneven rhythm in text.
Best suited for display settings where personality is a priority—posters, cover titles, packaging, and brand marks that want an offbeat, handcrafted voice. It can work for short paragraphs or pull quotes when a textured, illustrative feel is desired, but the thin strokes and bouncy rhythm favor larger sizes.
The font conveys a playful, eccentric tone with a vintage, DIY sensibility. Its wavy stems and boxy curves feel friendly and informal, evoking children’s books, handmade signage, or quirky editorial styling rather than strict modern typography.
The design appears intended to merge sturdy slab-serif structure with a deliberately hand-rendered, wavy outline, producing a readable yet characterful square-flavored text and display face. The goal seems to be a distinctive, retro-leaning personality without heavy contrast or ornate detailing.
In the sample text, the irregular outlines and variable proportions become a defining texture, especially in longer lines. The square, slab-like finishing details help maintain structure and legibility even as the shapes remain intentionally idiosyncratic.
