A heavy, soft-edged sans with rounded, slightly lopsided forms and a buoyant rhythm. Strokes are thick and largely monoline, with subtly irregular curves and angled joins that give letters a hand-cut, poster-like feel. Counters are generous for the weight, terminals tend to be blunt, and proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, uneven texture in words. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey constructions and compact apertures, while numerals are bold and geometric with friendly, inflated shapes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, event headlines, stickers, toy and snack packaging, and playful branding. It can also work for comics, titles, and social graphics where boldness and friendliness matter more than typographic neutrality.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, leaning toward comic and kid-friendly rather than corporate or editorial. Its wobble and chunky silhouettes read as approachable and energetic, with a slightly mischievous, handcrafted personality.
Designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a friendly, handcrafted vibe, using chunky shapes and mild irregularity to feel human and fun. It prioritizes character and immediacy over strict consistency, aiming for display readability and a distinctive voice.
The font’s visual signature comes from its intentional irregularity: some verticals and bowls tilt or pinch slightly, and spacing feels more “drawn” than mechanically uniform. This helps it hold attention at display sizes but can make long passages feel busy or heavy.
