A heavy, rounded sans with soft cornering and subtly irregular, hand-cut geometry. Strokes remain consistent in thickness, while many glyphs show slight tilts and asymmetric joins that create a lively rhythm. Counters are generally tight and circular-to-oval, with open apertures on forms like C and S and a compact, dense color overall. Uppercase shapes are broad and blocky, while the lowercase shows a tall, sturdy build with simplified terminals and minimal detailing.
Best used for display typography such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and short promotional copy where its dense weight and playful irregularity can shine. It also fits children’s media, casual event materials, and social graphics, especially when set with generous spacing and ample size.
The font reads as upbeat and informal, with a buoyant, slightly wonky silhouette that feels approachable rather than technical. Its chunky forms and gentle rounding evoke a retro display sensibility—energetic, friendly, and a bit mischievous—well suited to attention-getting headlines.
The design appears intended to provide a bold, friendly display voice with a handcrafted bounce, prioritizing personality and impact over strict geometric precision. Its simplified shapes and rounded structure aim for immediate legibility at large sizes while adding a distinctive, quirky texture.
Distinctive quirks include angled or flared terminals on several letters, a punchy, compact ‘a’ and ‘e’, and numerals that lean toward bold, poster-like shapes. The overall texture is dark and steady, with small internal spaces that become a defining feature at larger sizes.
