A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and subtly irregular outlines that create a hand-drawn feel. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear with gentle modulation, and terminals tend to be blunted rather than crisply cut. Counters are compact and rounded, and the overall spacing and widths feel slightly uneven from glyph to glyph, adding a lively rhythm. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms and the numerals are similarly bulbous and simplified, keeping a consistent, chunky texture in text.
Well suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and short bursts of copy where an upbeat, informal voice is desirable. It can also work effectively for children’s materials, playful branding accents, and social graphics where bold shapes and quick recognition matter more than long-form readability.
The font reads as cheerful and approachable, with a casual, slightly goofy tone reminiscent of marker lettering or cartoon titling. Its softness and mild irregularity make it feel warm and human rather than technical or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly, high-impact display voice with a hand-rendered sensibility, prioritizing warmth and personality over strict geometric consistency.
At larger sizes it forms a strong black silhouette with distinctive character, while the tight counters and heavy joins can make dense paragraphs feel weighty. The design’s charm comes from its deliberate wobble and rounded geometry, which works best when the letterforms have room to breathe.
