A heavy, rounded sans with soft terminals and subtly irregular outlines that give the letterforms a hand-shaped, slightly wobbly feel. Strokes stay broadly even, while curves are generously inflated and counters are compact, producing a dense, ink-trappy silhouette at display sizes. The construction favors simplified geometry—single-storey lowercase forms and sturdy, blocky capitals—with occasional asymmetries and angled joins that add motion. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, reinforcing an informal rhythm rather than a strictly engineered texture.
Best suited for short, prominent text such as posters, headlines, labels, and packaging where its chunky rounded forms read quickly and project personality. It also fits kid-oriented or casual branding and social graphics, especially where an informal, hand-made texture is desirable.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a comic, homemade warmth. Its springy shapes and uneven cadence feel personable and a bit mischievous, prioritizing charm and presence over crisp neutrality.
The design appears intended as a characterful display sans: a simplified, rounded structure with intentional irregularities to evoke hand lettering while retaining the straightforward readability of a sans-serif build.
At larger sizes the rounded corners and compact counters create strong signage-like impact; in longer passages the playful irregularity can become visually busy. Numerals and punctuation match the same soft, sturdy construction, keeping a consistent, friendly voice across mixed content.
