A rounded sans with heavy, even strokes and softly curved corners. Letterforms show a subtle hand-drawn wobble and mild per-glyph tilt, producing a bouncy rhythm across words rather than a rigidly mechanical texture. Counters are generally open and circular, with compact joins and smooth terminals that stay blunt rather than sharp. Proportions vary slightly from glyph to glyph, and widths feel intentionally irregular, giving lines a lively, uneven cadence while maintaining clear silhouettes.
Best suited to display use where its bouncy rhythm and rounded shapes can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging, and playful brand marks. It can work for short blocks of copy in casual contexts, but its irregularity is most effective when used for emphasis, captions, or marketing text rather than dense reading.
The overall tone is cheerful and casual, with a comic, kid-friendly energy. Its irregular stance and soft geometry make it feel conversational and human, more like marker lettering than formal typography. The bold color and rounded shapes keep it approachable and high-impact without feeling aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly, hand-made feel within a clean sans framework. By combining solid stroke weight with slightly irregular geometry, it aims for high visibility and warmth—communicating approachability, fun, and informality in display settings.
Uppercase forms read as simple and sturdy, while lowercase adds more personality through shifting slants and varied widths. Numerals are clear and rounded, matching the same soft, weighty construction. At larger sizes the wobble becomes part of the charm; in longer paragraphs it creates a deliberately animated texture.
