A heavy, soft-edged display face built from bulbous, flowing strokes that swell and pinch unpredictably. The outlines are rounded and slightly lopsided, with a hand-molded feel and a subtle forward slant. Counters are irregular and droplet-like, terminals are blunted, and joins often look melted together rather than crisply constructed. Overall spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an elastic, liquid rhythm in words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, event graphics, album or playlist art, and playful packaging. It will work especially well when set large with generous spacing, where the irregular counters and wavy contours can be appreciated without compromising readability.
The font projects a cheerful, groovy energy with a distinctly trippy, 60s–70s poster sensibility. Its wobbly silhouettes and puffy weight create a friendly, humorous tone that feels more like signage or artwork than conventional typography.
The design appears intended to evoke a liquid, psychedelic display look—prioritizing personality, motion, and nostalgia over strict typographic regularity. Its exaggerated swelling strokes and uneven rhythm aim to make words feel animated and tactile, like shapes cut from soft material.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same soft, swollen construction, with many letters leaning on exaggerated curves and bulb forms to stay recognizable. Numerals follow the same blobby logic, reading clearly at display sizes while maintaining the font’s irregular, hand-formed character.
