A chunky, soft-edged sans with subtly irregular geometry and a gently wavy rhythm across lines. Strokes are heavy and largely monolinear, with rounded terminals and slightly uneven joins that create a hand-cut, organic feel. Counters tend to be open and simple, while curves and diagonals show small variations in angle and thickness that keep the texture lively. Uppercase forms are compact and sturdy; lowercase includes a single-storey a and g with a casual, simplified construction and a tall, narrow t with a small crossbar.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its lively texture can read as intentional: headlines, posters, packaging, café menus, event graphics, and friendly signage. It can work for brief blurbs or pull quotes at larger sizes, but the irregular rhythm is more impactful (and more legible) when given room.
The overall tone is cheerful and informal, with a quirky, slightly retro personality. Its bouncy spacing and softened shapes feel approachable and human, suggesting something crafted rather than mechanical.
This design appears intended to offer a warm, idiosyncratic alternative to a standard grotesque sans—keeping simple, sans-serif structures while adding hand-made irregularities for charm and memorability.
Figures are heavy and attention-grabbing, with rounded bowls and simple silhouettes that match the letterforms’ playful irregularity. In longer text the face maintains strong color and a distinctive “wiggle,” making it more characterful than strictly neutral.
