A chunky sans with a distinctly hand-drawn construction and subtly irregular geometry. Strokes are heavy and generally monolinear, with soft rounding at joins and terminals that often look slightly beveled or cut by hand rather than mechanically squared. Proportions vary per glyph, creating a lively rhythm: curves (C, G, O, S) are full and slightly flattened, while verticals (I, l) feel sturdy and compact. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms and a sturdy, upright stance, with compact counters and a generally dense texture in words.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where its playful irregularity can be a feature. It can also work well for children’s materials, casual event graphics, and social content that benefits from a friendly, handcrafted voice.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a casual, comic-like energy. Its small inconsistencies and bouncy spacing read as human and expressive, suggesting spontaneity rather than strict typographic neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable sans voice with a deliberately handmade texture. By favoring simple forms, rounded shaping, and slight inconsistency, it aims to feel personable and energetic while staying clear and readable at display sizes.
Round letters maintain relatively consistent weight around the bowl, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) have a slightly cut-paper feel that reinforces the handmade impression. Numerals are bold and legible with simple silhouettes; the “1” is a plain vertical, and rounded digits like 8 and 9 keep tight counters that strengthen color on the page.
