A heavy, soft-edged sans with subtly irregular contours that create a hand-cut, slightly wavy silhouette. Strokes are broadly even with low modulation, and terminals tend to be blunted or gently rounded rather than crisp. The forms show mild width and shape variation from glyph to glyph, giving an organic rhythm; counters are compact and openings are somewhat tight, emphasizing mass and impact. Lowercase includes simple, single-storey constructions with a sturdy, compact feel, and numerals follow the same chunky, rounded logic.
Best suited for display use where personality and impact matter: posters, big headlines, packaging, event graphics, and playful branding. It also works well for short UI or social graphics where a friendly, attention-grabbing voice is desired, but its dense counters suggest avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, with a nostalgic, poster-like cheerfulness. Its uneven, tactile shapes read as personable and handmade, leaning toward cartoon and mid-century display sensibilities rather than technical neutrality.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, approachable display voice with a handmade, imperfect finish. The goal appears to be strong visual presence paired with a fun, quirky rhythm that differentiates it from cleaner geometric sans styles.
Large, dark shapes and tight internal spaces make the face feel punchy at headline sizes, while the quirky outlines add character in short phrases. The varied curves and angled joins (notably in diagonals and shoulders) contribute to a lively, slightly mischievous texture across lines of text.
