A quirky, narrow text face with intentionally irregular, hand-cut geometry. Strokes keep a fairly even overall weight but wobble subtly in direction and curvature, creating a lively rhythm. Terminals are mostly blunt and slightly angled, and curves lean toward teardrop and oval shapes rather than perfect circles. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph—some letters look pinched while others swell—giving the alphabet a cut-paper, handmade consistency rather than strict mechanical uniformity.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where character is more important than strict neutrality: headlines, posters, packaging, and playful brand identities. It can also work for children’s books and event materials, especially when paired with a calmer companion font for longer reading.
The font reads friendly and mischievous, with a storybook warmth and a slightly off-kilter charm. Its uneven contours and bouncy spacing suggest informality and personality, evoking craft, children’s media, and lighthearted display use.
The design appears intended to capture a handcrafted, informal voice while staying clear enough for general use. By mixing narrow proportions with gently inconsistent curves and angled terminals, it aims for a distinctive, approachable texture that stands out in display settings.
Uppercase forms are tall and narrow with simplified construction, while the lowercase introduces more distinctive quirks (notably in letters like g, k, and y). Numerals follow the same handmade logic, with curved bowls and angled feet that feel drawn rather than engineered.
