A heavy, expanded serif with pronounced flared stroke endings and soft, rounded joins. The letterforms show gently bulging verticals and subtly tapered terminals that create a sculpted, carved feel rather than crisp slab edges. Counters are generous for the weight, curves are full and smooth, and the overall rhythm is lively, with slightly irregular, buoyant silhouettes that keep the texture from feeling rigid.
Best suited to short-form settings where personality and weight are assets: headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for large-size signage or punchy editorial callouts, where its flared details and lively texture remain clearly visible.
The tone is warm and jovial, leaning toward retro display styling with a whimsical, storybook-like charm. Its chunky presence and flared endings give it an inviting, handcrafted personality that reads as confident and approachable.
Designed to deliver an assertive display voice with a friendly, retro-leaning character. The consistent flared terminals and rounded shaping suggest an intention to feel expressive and handcrafted while staying sturdy and highly legible at larger sizes.
The numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, bold color and broad stance, producing strong impact at headline sizes. The flared terminals are a dominant motif across straight strokes, helping the font feel cohesive while avoiding a purely geometric or industrial look.
