A compact, heavy sans with soft, rounded terminals and a gently irregular outline that suggests hand-cut or marker-drawn construction. Strokes keep a largely even thickness, with subtle wobble and slightly uneven curves that add texture without sacrificing legibility. Counters are fairly tight and apertures modest, creating a dense, punchy color in text. Proportions are narrow overall, with tall, rounded bowls and simplified joins that keep shapes bold and direct.
Best suited to short-to-medium text at display sizes where its dense weight and rounded shapes can project clearly—such as headlines, posters, packaging, and approachable branding. It can also work for UI labels or captions when a friendly, informal voice is desired, provided spacing and size are generous enough to keep the tight counters open.
The letterforms read warm and approachable, with a quirky, informal energy. Its slightly imperfect geometry gives it a handcrafted feel that leans more fun than corporate, making the tone feel personable and contemporary rather than strictly mechanical.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly sans voice with a deliberately human edge—pairing sturdy, compact proportions with softened corners and mild irregularity to feel approachable and characterful in everyday display typography.
In running text the rhythm is lively, with small variations in curvature and terminal angles producing a bouncy, animated texture. Figures are simple and sturdy, matching the compact, rounded construction of the letters and maintaining a consistent visual weight across mixed settings.
