A heavy, rounded sans with a pronounced rightward slant and soft, blunted terminals throughout. Strokes stay broadly even, with gently inflated curves and slightly pinched joins that give forms a rubbery, hand-drawn feel while remaining clean and consistent. Counters are compact and openings are modest, producing a dense, punchy texture; the overall rhythm is lively, with subtle width variation from glyph to glyph rather than strict geometric uniformity.
Best suited to headlines, display copy, and short bursts of text where a bold, friendly voice is desirable—such as posters, packaging, playful branding, and social media graphics. It can also work for emphasis in UI or editorial layouts when used sparingly and at larger sizes to preserve internal clarity.
The tone is approachable and upbeat, leaning toward a comic, kid-friendly warmth rather than corporate neutrality. Its soft edges and buoyant shapes suggest motion and friendliness, making text feel conversational and upbeat even at large sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, approachable character: a slanted, rounded display sans that feels energetic and informal while staying highly legible at display scales.
Uppercase forms read as sturdy and blocky with rounded corners, while lowercase introduces more personality through simplified bowls and short, soft-shouldered stems. The numerals are similarly rounded and bold, designed to match the letterforms’ compact counters and cushioned curves for a cohesive, headline-forward appearance.
