A heavy, sans-based display face with rounded, chunky forms and intentionally uneven geometry. Strokes are broad and low-contrast, with subtly wobbly edges and frequent angled cuts that create a hand-cut, collage-like feel. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, with lively alternation in widths and slightly irregular curves that keep the texture animated in both caps and lowercase. Counters are generally open and simple, supporting bold silhouette recognition over precision.
Best suited to short, high-impact applications such as posters, headlines, packaging fronts, and playful branding. It performs well for children’s media, casual event flyers, and humorous pull quotes where personality is more important than long-form reading comfort.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, evoking cartoon lettering and DIY craft signage. Its irregular rhythm and softened corners make it feel friendly and informal, with a humorous, slightly chaotic energy that reads as lighthearted rather than rugged.
The design appears intended to deliver an approachable, cartoon-leaning display voice through exaggerated weight, rounded terminals, and deliberately irregular construction. Its hand-made wobble and varied proportions suggest a goal of spontaneity and charm rather than strict typographic uniformity.
In text settings the font produces a strong, dark typographic color and a distinctly bouncy baseline impression due to the varying widths and asymmetric shapes. The numerals match the same cut-paper logic, with simplified constructions and emphatic weight that prioritize impact at larger sizes.
