A rounded, hand-lettered sans with noticeably uneven stroke modulation and softly swelling curves. Letterforms lean on simple geometry but are intentionally irregular: bowls are slightly lopsided, counters vary in size, and many stems show subtle waviness rather than rigid straightness. Terminals are mostly blunt and rounded, with a brush/marker-like taper appearing in spots, creating a lively rhythm and variable texture across words. Spacing feels open and forgiving, and the numerals follow the same informal, slightly elastic construction as the letters.
Works best for short to medium-length text where personality is desired, such as headlines, posters, product packaging, and friendly brand moments. It also suits children’s materials and informal signage, where the hand-made feel supports an approachable message.
The font reads as warm and personable, with a bouncy, approachable tone that suggests handmade signage or casual lettering. Its quirks and softened shapes add humor and charm, favoring expression over strict uniformity.
The design appears intended to mimic casual hand lettering with a marker-like texture while maintaining the clarity of a sans structure. Its controlled irregularities and rounded finishes aim to deliver a cheerful, human tone that remains readable at display sizes.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent informal logic, with the lowercase carrying especially fluid joins and simplified structures. The overall color on the page is strong and dark, but the shifting stroke thickness and irregular outlines keep it from feeling rigid or mechanical.
