A chunky, rounded sans with an intentionally irregular, hand-inked texture. Strokes are heavy with subtly uneven edges, producing a soft, slightly blobby silhouette rather than crisp geometric outlines. Curves are broadly drawn and counters stay open enough for clarity, while terminals tend to be blunt and flattened. Proportions feel relaxed and variable from glyph to glyph, creating a lively rhythm in both caps and lowercase and a slightly condensed, stacked feel in some letters.
Works best for short to medium-length display settings where a friendly, crafted voice is desirable—such as posters, product packaging, café or event signage, and branding accents. It can also serve for pull quotes and subheads when you want visible texture and personality, though the heavy, irregular outlines may feel busy at very small sizes.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a handmade personality that reads as approachable and fun. The roughened edges and buoyant shapes evoke craft printing, marker lettering, and DIY signage rather than polished corporate typography.
The design appears intended to capture a bold, hand-printed feel with softened geometry and controlled roughness, balancing readability with an unmistakably handmade texture for expressive display typography.
In continuous text the texture becomes a consistent grain that adds character, while the heavier weight keeps lines visually solid. Numerals match the same rounded, uneven construction, reinforcing the cohesive hand-rendered look.
