A heavy, compact sans with rounded corners and slightly irregular, hand-cut contours. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, with squarish counters and blunt terminals that give each letter a solid, block-like silhouette. The lowercase is sturdy and simplified, with a single-storey “a,” a compact “e,” and short, squared-shoulder forms that keep interior spaces tight. Numerals match the same chunky construction, with soft rounding and minimal detailing for clear, bold shapes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where a bold, approachable voice is needed. It can also work for playful UI labels or social graphics, especially at larger sizes where the chunky shapes and tight counters remain clear.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, with a retro sign-painting or cut-paper feel that reads as friendly rather than technical. Its slightly uneven edges add personality and a handcrafted energy, making text feel lively and approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a friendly, handcrafted character—favoring simple, robust forms and soft corners to create an energetic display voice.
Spacing and rhythm appear dense, emphasizing mass and impact over delicacy. The caps are tall and assertive, while the lowercase maintains a strong presence that keeps mixed-case settings visually even.
