A heavy, rounded sans with visibly hand-drawn contours and a deliberately uneven edge. Strokes show clear modulation, with weight swelling through curves and thinning at joins, creating a lively, inked rhythm. Terminals are blunt and softly squared, counters are compact, and the overall spacing feels generous, giving the forms a chunky, open presence. Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, casual construction, with simplified geometry and slightly irregular proportions that read as intentionally organic rather than mechanical.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and logo or brand marks where a friendly, handmade personality is desirable. It can work for short callouts and playful editorial subheads, but the dense texture and irregularity may be less comfortable for long-form reading at smaller sizes.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a playful, cartoon-like confidence. Its imperfect edges and bouncy stroke movement suggest a human touch—more crafty and expressive than corporate—making text feel approachable and characterful.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable display voice with an artisanal, marker-like finish. By pairing soft, rounded shapes with visible stroke variation and mild irregularity, it aims for personality and charm over strict typographic neutrality.
In text, the strong weight and compact counters create dense black texture, so shorter runs read best. The figures and round letters keep a soft silhouette, while sharper diagonals (like V/W/X) add a bit of snap that helps headings feel energetic.
