A chunky, rounded sans with heavy strokes and softly squared curves. Outlines show intentional irregularity—slight waviness, uneven terminals, and subtle changes in stroke thickness—giving the forms a hand-cut or stamped feel while staying highly legible. Counters are generally open and generous, and most joins are blunt rather than sharply tapered, producing a compact, sturdy texture in text. Numerals and capitals keep the same robust proportions, with an overall rhythm that feels lively rather than mechanically uniform.
Best suited to headlines, short paragraphs, and prominent labeling where the bold, handmade texture can be appreciated. It works well for playful branding, kids-oriented materials, packaging, menus, event posters, crafts, and sticker-style graphics; for long-form reading, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes with ample line spacing.
The font conveys an informal, approachable tone with a cheerful, slightly mischievous personality. Its bouncy irregularity reads as human and crafty, making it feel casual and fun rather than corporate or technical.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly display sans that feels handcrafted and tactile, combining simple geometric construction with deliberate irregularities to avoid a sterile, digital look. The goal seems to be strong visual impact and warmth, with sturdy shapes that remain clear in casual, expressive applications.
Spacing appears fairly even for a display-forward design, and the roughened edges become more noticeable at larger sizes where the organic contours read as a deliberate texture. Curves (like C, O, S) stay smooth and full, while straight strokes (like I, L, T) show gentle wobble that reinforces the handmade character.
