A chunky, heavy sans with softly rounded corners and an intentionally uneven, hand-cut feel. Strokes are broad and fairly uniform, with subtle wobble in verticals and irregular joins that create a lively rhythm across words. Counters are compact and somewhat squarish, and many letters show slight asymmetry or tilt-like distortion while remaining upright overall. The lowercase is simple and sturdy, with single-storey forms and round dots, giving the texture of cut paper or marker-drawn shapes rather than precise geometry.
Best suited to attention-grabbing display use such as posters, event flyers, product packaging, and short headlines where its quirky texture can read as a deliberate style choice. It can also work well for kid-oriented materials, crafts, labels, and social graphics where friendliness and personality are more important than typographic neutrality.
The font conveys a humorous, casual tone with a slightly mischievous edge. Its uneven proportions and bouncy silhouettes feel informal and approachable, suggesting spontaneity and charm rather than refinement.
Likely designed to provide a bold, characterful sans that feels handmade and imperfect by intent—prioritizing charm, humor, and strong silhouettes for display settings over strict geometric consistency.
At text sizes the dense weight and tight interior spaces can make long passages feel dark, but the distinct silhouettes keep short phrases and headings energetic. The numerals match the same playful, irregular construction, supporting cohesive display typography.
