A heavy, rounded sans with subtly irregular contours and a lively, hand-cut feel. Strokes stay broadly consistent in weight, but letters show mild flare at terminals and occasional wedge-like notches that create a carved, cut-paper impression. Counters are compact and often rounded-rectangular, with overall proportions that feel sturdy and top-heavy in places. The lowercase is large and chunky, with simple single-storey forms and short, blunt terminals that keep silhouettes bold and readable at display sizes.
Best suited to short display text where its chunky shapes and playful irregularity can read clearly—posters, splashy headlines, seasonal or themed promotions, packaging, and character-driven branding. It can also work for large-size pull quotes or signage where a bold, friendly-but-quirky tone is desired.
The design reads as mischievous and theatrical—part retro cartoon title, part Halloween or funhouse signage. Its uneven detailing and soft, chiseled edges add personality and a slightly eerie, storybook tone without becoming distressed or gritty.
The font appears designed to provide a bold, attention-grabbing sans with a handcrafted, stylized twist—prioritizing memorable silhouettes and theatrical energy over neutral, text-first regularity.
Several glyphs lean into distinctive, quirky construction—angular joins, flared ends, and irregular interior cuts—giving the alphabet a handcrafted rhythm. Numerals match the same chunky geometry and decorative terminal shaping, helping mixed text maintain a consistent, characterful texture.
