A heavy, all-caps-friendly sans with rounded bowls and broad, blocky stems that feel hand-cut rather than mechanically uniform. Terminals are frequently sheared into wedge-like angles, producing lively, uneven edges and subtle internal notches at joins. Curves are smooth but slightly squashed, counters are compact, and the overall silhouette alternates between soft roundness and abrupt diagonal cuts. Spacing and letterfit read intentionally irregular, creating a wavy rhythm across words and a distinct, animated texture at display sizes.
Best suited to posters, headlines, and short brand statements where a loud, friendly personality is needed. It also fits packaging, event graphics, and children’s or entertainment-oriented materials, especially when set large so the cut terminals and compact counters remain clear.
The face projects a humorous, kid-friendly energy—bold, attention-grabbing, and a little mischievous. Its off-kilter cuts and buoyant shapes evoke handmade signage and cartoon titling, giving text a spirited, informal voice.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with a handcrafted, cut-paper feel—prioritizing character and visual bounce over strict regularity. It’s intended to turn simple words into bold, animated shapes for expressive display typography.
Uppercase forms stay simple and sturdy while lowercase adds more personality through asymmetric shoulders and angled terminals, increasing the sense of motion in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same chunky construction with compact counters and playful angular cuts, keeping the set cohesive.
