A heavy, compact display sans with broad, slightly irregular forms and a hand-cut, collage-like rhythm. Strokes are thick but not monolinear, showing gentle tapers and localized narrowing that create a subtle contrasted feel within otherwise blocky shapes. Counters are generally round and open, terminals are softly squared or rounded, and many glyphs lean on asymmetry and uneven widths for a lively texture. The lowercase appears compact with short extenders and a simplified, sturdy construction, while the figures are large, bold, and highly geometric with generous internal space.
Best suited for display use where bold, characterful letterforms are meant to carry the message—posters, headlines, product packaging, playful branding, and short bursts of copy. It performs especially well in titles and signage-style compositions where its chunky silhouettes and irregular rhythm can be appreciated.
The overall tone is upbeat and mischievous, with a bouncy baseline energy and a distinctly informal, kid-friendly attitude. Its exaggerated weight and irregularity read as humorous and attention-seeking rather than technical or reserved.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, hand-made feel, combining sturdy, rounded geometry with intentional unevenness to keep text lively. The goal appears to be approachable display typography that stands out quickly and adds humor and warmth to short phrases.
The font’s uneven character widths and varied silhouette shapes create strong word images and a lively gray value, especially in all-caps settings. At larger sizes the interior shaping and tapered joins become a key part of the personality, while in smaller sizes the heavy massing may dominate fine detail.
