A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and largely even, with slightly irregular edges that suggest a hand-rendered or stamp-like texture rather than a mechanically perfect outline. Counters are simple and open, terminals tend to be blunt, and curves are built from superelliptical arcs that keep forms sturdy and legible at display sizes. The overall rhythm is slightly uneven in a deliberate way, giving the set a lively, organic feel while maintaining consistent proportions across the alphabet and numerals.
Works best in posters, packaging, and branding where a friendly, handmade display voice is desirable. It also suits children’s-focused materials, café menus, labels, and social graphics, especially at medium-to-large sizes where its texture and rounded construction can be appreciated.
The tone is warm and informal, with a playful, slightly rugged personality. Its soft geometry and subtle wobble read as approachable and crafty, evoking DIY signage, kids’ materials, or casual editorial display.
The design appears intended to combine sturdy, rounded geometric letterforms with a deliberately imperfect finish, creating an approachable display sans that feels crafted rather than corporate. It prioritizes charm and immediacy over strict typographic precision.
Uppercase forms feel blocky and confident, while lowercase keeps simple, single-storey shapes where applicable, reinforcing the casual voice. Numerals match the rounded, chunky construction and look suited to headlines and short callouts more than dense data tables.
