A chunky, heavy sans with rounded outer curves and subtly irregular, hand-cut-looking contours. Strokes stay broadly consistent but edges show gentle wobble and occasional angled cuts, creating a lively, informal texture. Counters are compact and often slightly asymmetric, and the overall rhythm is bouncy with uneven widths and small baseline/sidebearing nuances that read as intentionally imperfect. The lowercase is sturdy and simple, with single-story forms and short, thick terminals that keep the color dense and graphic.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, product packaging, labels, and playful branding. It also works well for kids-oriented materials, event promos, and punchy social graphics where an informal, handcrafted feel is desirable.
The font projects a playful, friendly tone with a bit of mischievous roughness, like cut-paper lettering or marker-drawn display type. Its unevenness adds personality and approachability, making text feel casual and energetic rather than corporate or refined.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable display voice that feels handmade without becoming fully script or brush-based. Its controlled irregularity suggests an aim for personality and warmth while retaining clear, simple sans letterforms.
At larger sizes the irregular contours and compact counters become a key part of the character; in longer lines the dense weight and quirky spacing can create a strong, attention-grabbing texture. The numerals match the same soft, slightly wonky construction and read as bold, poster-like figures.
