A heavy, geometric sans with softened corners and a noticeably irregular, hand-cut rhythm. Strokes are broadly uniform, but many glyphs show subtle waviness, asymmetrical curves, and slightly tilted or bulging joins that create a lively, uneven color. Counters are generally open and rounded, with compact apertures and simplified terminals; overall spacing feels roomy and buoyant rather than tightly engineered. The figures and capitals share the same chunky construction, with small inconsistencies in width and stance that read as intentional character rather than distortion.
Well-suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, packaging, storefront graphics, event promos, and bold branding moments where personality is more important than typographic neutrality. It can also work for kid-focused or comic-adjacent design, labels, and social graphics, especially at display sizes where the quirky details remain clear.
The font projects a fun, informal tone—confident and loud, but approachable. Its imperfect geometry and buoyant silhouettes suggest humor, spontaneity, and a handmade sensibility, closer to playful display lettering than neutral editorial typography.
Designed to deliver a bold sans look with deliberate irregularity—combining simple geometric construction with a playful, hand-made wobble to keep text feeling energetic and personable.
The variable-looking letter widths and slightly unstable baselines add energy in headlines, while the thick strokes keep forms readable at moderate sizes. Some shapes (notably diagonals and curved bowls) emphasize a cut-paper, cartoon-like feel through uneven curvature and softened corners.
