A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and subtly irregular geometry that gives each glyph a slightly off-kilter, hand-cut feel. Strokes are thick and largely monoline, with broad curves, compact apertures, and simplified joins. Many terminals and horizontal strokes show a gentle tilt or asymmetry, creating a lively, uneven rhythm across words while maintaining clear, sturdy silhouettes. Counters are relatively small for the weight, and forms like O/0 and B/P emphasize bold, blobby interiors that read strongly at display sizes.
Best suited to short-form display work such as posters, headlines, product packaging, event promos, and playful identity systems. It can also work for pull quotes or UI accents where a friendly, informal voice is needed, but its irregular rhythm is most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is playful and informal, with a cheerful, cartoon-forward personality. Its bouncy shapes and purposeful irregularities evoke handmade signage and kid-friendly packaging, leaning more fun than serious or technical.
Likely intended as an attention-grabbing display sans that feels handcrafted and approachable. The design prioritizes bold silhouettes and characterful, slightly uneven details to create a distinctive voice in branding and promotional typography.
The texture becomes noticeably animated in continuous text because individual glyphs vary in stance and tilt, producing a wavy, energetic line color. Numerals match the same chunky, rounded construction and feel designed to stand out as display figures rather than for dense tabular settings.
