A compact sans with chunky strokes and softly rounded terminals, set in slightly irregular, hand-drawn-looking outlines. Counters are generally open and clean, with a gentle bounce in curves and a subtle wobble in verticals that keeps the texture lively. Uppercase forms are simple and sturdy, while lowercase includes single-storey shapes and short, sturdy ascenders and descenders. Numerals are similarly robust and rounded, designed to read clearly at display sizes with an intentionally casual rhythm.
Best suited to short-form display work where personality is a priority: headlines, posters, event promos, packaging, and brand marks that want a friendly, informal feel. It can also work for larger UI labels or pull quotes, but its textured rhythm is most effective at medium-to-large sizes.
The font projects a cheerful, approachable tone with a quirky, homemade charm. Its unevenness feels intentional, giving it a human voice that reads as fun and slightly retro rather than formal or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver an expressive sans with a hand-crafted, approachable presence—balancing sturdy construction and clear letterforms with enough irregularity to feel personal and playful.
Spacing appears relatively tight and compact, helping the face feel dense and punchy in headlines. The dot on i/j is prominent, and several letters show modest asymmetry that adds character without becoming hard to parse.
