A chunky, hand-drawn sans with compact proportions and softly rounded corners. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with subtle wobble and slight asymmetries that keep the rhythm lively rather than mechanical. Counters are small and rounded, apertures tend to be tight, and terminals often finish with gentle bulges or flattened ends, giving the forms a stamped-marker feel. Spacing reads steady but not rigid, and the overall silhouette stays clear at display sizes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, signage, labels, and playful packaging where the bold texture can carry the message. It can also work for children’s materials and casual branding, especially when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The tone is informal and upbeat, with a personable, doodled energy that feels approachable and a bit mischievous. Its uneven, handmade regularity suggests human touch and casual confidence rather than polish or formality.
Designed to mimic bold hand printing with consistent weight and deliberately imperfect contours, prioritizing warmth and personality. The letterforms aim for quick recognition and a strong, dark presence while keeping a relaxed, drawn-by-hand charm.
Distinctive, simplified shapes (notably in letters like Q, J, and the numerals) emphasize character over strict typographic convention. The dense color and tight interior spaces make it most comfortable when given ample size and breathing room.
