A heavy, rounded sans with soft, squarish curves and an overall superellipse construction. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal contrast and generously rounded corners that give counters a pill-like feel. The letterforms show slight irregularities in joins and terminals, creating an organic, hand-cut rhythm while staying consistent in overall proportions. Uppercase shapes are compact and sturdy, lowercase forms are simple and open, and the numerals are solid and highly legible with broad bowls and wide apertures.
Well suited for posters, headlines, labels, and packaging where a friendly, high-impact voice is needed. It can also work for children’s media, casual signage, and playful brand identities, especially when set at medium to large sizes where the soft geometry and chunky forms read clearly.
The font reads as cheerful and approachable, with a casual, slightly mischievous tone. Its chunky silhouettes and softened geometry evoke a retro display sensibility suited to lighthearted messaging and characterful branding.
Likely designed to deliver a warm, attention-grabbing display sans that feels hand-made without becoming chaotic. The intention appears to balance sturdy readability with rounded, characterful shapes for upbeat, informal communication.
Spacing appears comfortable at display sizes, and the rounded detailing keeps dense text from feeling sharp or technical. The design favors strong silhouettes over fine detail, making it most distinctive when set large.
