A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squashed counters. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with blunt terminals and subtly uneven edges that feel hand-cut rather than mechanically perfect. Curves tend toward superelliptical shapes, giving bowls and apertures a cushioned, blocky look, while spacing and widths vary slightly from glyph to glyph for an organic rhythm.
Best suited to display sizes where its thick strokes and irregular edges can be appreciated: posters, short headlines, packaging, labels, and playful branding. It also works well for children’s materials or casual event graphics where a friendly, handmade texture is desirable.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, with a slightly rustic, DIY texture. Its chunky forms read as warm and approachable, leaning toward a retro, poster-like friendliness rather than a sleek contemporary voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, approachable personality—combining bold, compact silhouettes with subtly imperfect contours to evoke hand-made signage and cheerful retro display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same sturdy, simplified logic, with single-storey lowercase forms and compact joins that keep color dense on the line. Numerals match the same soft-cornered, sturdy style, maintaining consistent weight and a casual, crafted feel across the set.
