A heavy, soft-edged sans with compact, chunky letterforms and subtly irregular contours. Strokes maintain a largely even thickness, while terminals and corners are rounded or slightly blunted, giving the shapes a cut-out, hand-formed feel. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph—especially in diagonals and curved letters—creating a lively rhythm rather than strict geometric consistency. Counters are generally open but kept tight by the weight, and the overall silhouette reads as bold, simple shapes with gentle wobble.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster titles, product packaging, and playful branding. It also works well for stickers, labels, and children’s or educational materials where an informal, friendly voice is desired. For longer passages, the dense weight and tight counters suggest using larger sizes and ample spacing for comfort.
The font conveys a cheerful, informal tone with a cartoon-like bounce. Its uneven, handmade flavor feels approachable and fun, leaning more toward playful signage and kid-friendly energy than corporate neutrality. The extra weight adds confidence and loudness without becoming sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable sans voice with a handmade, cartoonish personality. By prioritizing simple silhouettes, rounded edges, and slight irregularity, it aims for warmth and character while remaining highly legible at display sizes.
Uppercase forms are broad and compact with simplified geometry, while lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey approach where applicable and maintains the same soft, chunky construction. Numerals follow the same friendly, slightly lopsided logic, with generous curves and tight internal spaces that emphasize mass and impact.
