This typeface is a stylized serif with flared terminals and softly bracketed, wedge-like serifs that create a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes feel gently calligraphic, with subtle swelling and tapering and occasional angled cuts that make letters look hand-shaped rather than mechanically drawn. Curves are open and rounded, counters are generous, and the silhouette varies noticeably from glyph to glyph, giving the overall texture a bouncy, irregular color while remaining clearly legible at display sizes.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where its irregular rhythm can be a feature rather than a distraction—posters, event titles, book covers, and playful packaging. It also works well for children’s or family-oriented materials, as well as branding that benefits from an intentionally handmade, humorous voice.
The tone is playful and offbeat, with a storybook charm and a slightly mischievous personality. Its quirky proportions and animated terminals suggest humor and informality, making text feel conversational and whimsical rather than formal or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, one-off personality: a serif that feels hand-rendered and expressive while staying readable. Its flared terminals, varied silhouettes, and lively spacing create a deliberate sense of spontaneity and charm.
Uppercase forms show a mix of sturdy verticals and exaggerated curved strokes (notably in C, G, S, and Q), while lowercase includes distinctive, characterful shapes such as a single-storey a and a looped g. Numerals follow the same hand-cut feel, with angled, slightly asymmetric details that keep the set visually consistent.
