A chunky, irregular sans with hand-cut, wobbly outlines and softly rounded corners. Strokes are heavy and mostly monoline, but edges show subtle dents and angular facets that create a rough, handmade texture. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, with uneven counters and a lively baseline/sidebearing rhythm that gives words a bouncy, cut-paper feel. Forms stay generally simple and sans-like, prioritizing mass and silhouette over precision.
Best suited to display settings where personality is an asset: posters, headlines, playful branding, packaging, labels, stickers, and social graphics. It can work for short bursts of text or emphasis, but the intentionally uneven contours and tight, chunky shapes make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is playful and informal, with a cheerful, slightly mischievous energy. Its uneven geometry reads as human-made and approachable, evoking craft, kids’ materials, or lighthearted humor rather than corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to mimic a hand-cut or marker-drawn sans: bold silhouettes, simplified structures, and controlled irregularity that signals authenticity and fun. It aims to deliver immediate impact and character while staying broadly legible in large sizes.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same rugged construction, and the numerals follow the same chunky, irregular logic for strong visual consistency. The texture becomes more apparent in longer text, where the small variations in width and contour create an animated, lively color on the page.
