A compact, hand-drawn sans with rounded-rectangle geometry and softly squared curves. Strokes are heavy and mostly monoline, with subtle waviness and rough edges that mimic marker or brush lettering. Counters are small and often squarish, terminals are blunt, and joins can thicken slightly, giving a stamped, imperfect rhythm. Overall spacing is tight and the letterforms feel condensed with lively, uneven widths that add to the handmade texture.
It works best at display sizes where its textured edges and compact shapes remain clear—posters, product packaging, labels, and playful branding. It can also suit short UI labels or captions when a handmade tone is desired, but long passages may feel dense due to the tight, condensed rhythm.
The font reads casual and approachable, with a crafty, zine-like character. Its irregularities create a warm, human tone that feels playful and slightly offbeat rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, handcrafted sans voice with rounded-rectangle forms and deliberate imperfections, aiming for personality and immediacy rather than strict geometric precision.
Capitals are simple and blocky, while the lowercase maintains the same rounded, hand-inked feel; dots and punctuation appear as soft, irregular blobs. Numerals follow the same chunky, drawn style, prioritizing character over strict uniformity.
