A chunky, display-oriented sans with irregular, hand-cut geometry and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes show subtle tapering and wedge-like terminals, with slightly inconsistent stem angles that make letters feel individually shaped rather than mechanically repeated. Curves are rounded but often tightened into pointed joins, and counters are generous, helping the heavy forms stay readable. Uppercase proportions are compact and sturdy, while the lowercase has a relatively high waist and simplified, single-story constructions; overall spacing feels loose and buoyant, reinforcing the informal texture.
Best suited to short-form display settings such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, and brand marks where personality is the priority. It can also work for children’s materials or playful editorial openers, but the irregular letterfit and energetic forms make it less ideal for long passages of small text.
The face reads as whimsical and approachable, with a mischievous, storybook tone. Its intentional wobble and knife-cut terminals suggest craft, collage, or playful signage rather than corporate polish.
The design appears intended to deliver an informal, handcrafted sans voice with strong silhouette and immediate character. Its wedge terminals and subtly inconsistent geometry aim to create warmth and motion while preserving clear letter recognition.
Several glyphs lean and twist subtly (notably in diagonals and bowls), creating a bouncy baseline impression even though the design remains upright overall. Numerals follow the same hand-shaped logic, with open apertures and slightly asymmetric curves that keep them expressive at display sizes.
