A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and inflated, almost blob-like forms. Strokes are thick and consistent, with broad counters and simplified joins that keep the silhouettes clean at a distance. The outlines show a gentle, hand-cut irregularity—subtle wobble in stems, angled terminals, and slightly asymmetric curves—that gives the design a lively rhythm. Uppercase shapes are compact and sturdy, while lowercase forms stay open and readable with straightforward construction and minimal detail.
Best suited to display applications where impact and warmth matter—posters, headlines, product packaging, playful branding, and attention-grabbing labels. It also works well for short blurbs and social graphics where a casual, humorous voice is desired.
The overall tone is friendly and humorous, with a deliberately imperfect, handmade feel. It reads as approachable and energetic rather than formal, with a cartoon-like bounce that adds personality to short messages and display text.
Designed to deliver maximum presence with a friendly, approachable voice, combining simple geometric bases with subtle hand-drawn unevenness. The intent appears to be a characterful display sans that stays legible while projecting fun, casual energy.
The ampersand and numerals match the same chunky, rounded construction, keeping punctuation and figures visually integrated with the alphabet. The weight and soft geometry create strong color on the page, and the slight irregularity becomes more apparent in longer lines of text.
