A chunky, informal sans with rounded bowls, soft corners, and noticeably irregular geometry that creates a lively, hand-drawn rhythm. Strokes stay fairly even, while terminals often end in wedge-like cuts or slightly flared, blunt shapes that give letters a carved, cut-paper feel. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with wide circular forms (C, O) alongside tighter, more compact shapes, and an overall bouncy baseline and spacing impression in text. Lowercase forms are simple and open, with single-storey a and g, short shoulders, and a generally generous aperture treatment that keeps counters clear at display sizes.
Best suited to short headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a friendly, informal voice is desired. It can also work for children’s materials, event titles, and social graphics, while longer text blocks may feel visually busy due to the intentionally irregular rhythm.
The tone is cheerful and mischievous, reading like a light comic or kids-oriented display face rather than a sober utilitarian sans. Its uneven, animated construction suggests spontaneity and humor, making text feel conversational and energetic.
The design appears intended to deliver a casual, handmade display sans that remains readable while embracing quirky irregularities and expressive wedge terminals. It prioritizes personality and movement over strict typographic uniformity.
Capitals lean toward geometric silhouettes with slight distortion, while diagonals and joins (K, R, W, X) show sharp, cut-in angles that contrast with the round counters. Numerals match the same playful, slightly lopsided style, with prominent curves and simplified detailing for quick recognition.
