A chunky, soft-cornered display face with swollen, blocky forms and wide proportions. The strokes are largely monolinear but shaped into blobby masses, interrupted by sharp, irregular slits and scooped counters that vary from glyph to glyph. Terminals tend to look cut, pinched, or notched rather than cleanly finished, creating a lively rhythm and an uneven texture across words.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings where the letterforms can be appreciated at larger sizes, such as posters, event flyers, playful packaging, and bold headlines. It also works well for kids’ or entertainment-oriented branding, album/streaming covers, and humorous editorial callouts. Because of its busy internal notches and uneven rhythm, it is less appropriate for dense body text or small UI sizes.
This typeface feels playful and mischievous, with a cheeky, off-kilter energy that reads as intentionally “wrong” in a fun way. Its heavy presence and unpredictable internal cuts give it a cartoonish, party-poster attitude that leans more expressive than refined.
The design appears intended to prioritize personality and immediate impact over neutrality or long-form readability. The irregular cuts and shifting internal shapes suggest a desire to make each letter feel animated and distinctive while still holding together as a cohesive, heavy display style.
The lowercase is especially chunky with a tall, dominant x-height, while the uppercase retains similarly weighty silhouettes for a consistent color on the page. Numerals are bold and rounded, matching the letterforms’ sculpted, cut-out look, and the overall spacing feels intentionally tight and graphic.
