A heavy, rounded sans with deliberately irregular geometry and a lively, hand-cut feel. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear, with soft corners, subtly uneven curves, and occasional angular cut-ins that create a chiseled, paper-cut silhouette. Counters tend to be compact and rounded, while terminals vary between smooth arcs and blunt, squared endings, giving the texture a slightly jittery rhythm. Spacing and letterfit read as intentionally loose and buoyant, helping the shapes stay open and bold at display sizes.
Best suited for display settings such as posters, headlines, product packaging, labels, and playful branding where a bold, friendly voice is needed. It works especially well for children’s content, event promos, and short, high-impact phrases; it is less appropriate for dense text or small UI sizes due to its compact counters and strong personality.
The overall tone is upbeat and humorous, with a quirky, animated energy that suggests cartoons, kids’ media, and lighthearted signage. Its uneven contours and chunky massing feel informal and approachable rather than technical or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fun, handcrafted sensibility—combining solid, readable silhouettes with purposely imperfect edges to feel energetic and informal.
The alphabet shows consistent eccentricity across caps and lowercase, with a noticeable mix of rounded bowls and occasional wedge-like notches that add character without turning into decorative flourishes. Numerals match the same chunky, playful construction, supporting cohesive titling and short callouts.
