A heavy, compact sans with intentionally irregular letterforms and a lively, uneven baseline rhythm. Strokes are thick and generally monolinear with subtle tapering, producing wedge-like terminals and occasional angled cuts. Counters are generous and rounded, while curves and verticals show slight wobble and asymmetry that reads as hand-shaped rather than mechanically precise. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, and the numerals share the same chunky, slightly skewed construction for a cohesive display texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short phrases where its quirky rhythm can be a feature rather than a distraction. It works well for playful branding, packaging, event promotions, and kid-focused or casual editorial applications that benefit from a bold, personable voice.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, with a cut-paper or hand-painted feel that adds motion and personality to words. Its uneven cadence and soft, rounded forms suggest informality and friendly humor rather than seriousness or restraint.
The design appears intended as a characterful display sans that balances high impact with a handcrafted, imperfect charm. Its irregular contours and wedge-cut terminals aim to inject energy and approachability into titles and brand messages.
In text settings, the weight and irregularity create strong color and immediate attention, especially in mixed-case lines. The distinctive, angled terminal treatment gives many letters a subtly carved look, which can add character at larger sizes but may feel busy in dense, small copy.
