A heavy, compact sans with softly rounded corners and an intentionally irregular, hand-cut silhouette. Strokes stay largely uniform, but many stems and bowls wobble or taper slightly, creating a lively, uneven rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and shapes lean toward squarish-rounded geometry, with occasional angular notches that read like cut-paper joins. Terminals are blunt and varied, and the overall spacing feels slightly uneven in a way that reinforces the casual, organic construction.
Works best for short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, product packaging, labels, and attention-grabbing signage. It’s especially fitting for kids-oriented materials, playful branding, and craft or DIY-themed graphics where a lively, imperfect texture is a feature rather than a flaw.
The font conveys a mischievous, upbeat tone—more comic and craft-like than corporate. Its uneven edges and buoyant letterforms suggest informality, approachability, and a bit of silliness, making it feel suited to lighthearted messaging and expressive headlines.
Likely designed to deliver an energetic display voice that feels handmade and approachable, using deliberate irregularity to avoid a sterile geometric look. The goal appears to be strong presence at larger sizes with a quirky, cartoonish personality.
Uppercase forms appear tall and emphatic with simplified structures, while lowercase remains sturdy and readable with compact apertures and a consistent, chunky texture. Numerals share the same hand-hewn feel, with bold, simplified silhouettes that prioritize impact over precision.
