A heavy, rounded display sans with subtly wavy contours and intentionally uneven geometry. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, but terminals and curves are irregular, creating a hand-cut, slightly “melted” silhouette rather than precise circular bowls. Counters are generally small for the weight, with friendly open apertures in letters like C and S and compact interiors in O and B. The rhythm is bouncy, with varying glyph widths and a gently unstable baseline feel, while maintaining upright posture and clear, simple constructions.
Best suited for short-form display settings such as headlines, posters, playful branding, and packaging where its quirky silhouettes can carry personality. It can also work for event flyers, apparel graphics, and labels, especially at larger sizes where the irregular detailing remains crisp and the heavy color adds impact.
The overall tone is playful and slightly mischievous, with a nostalgic, poster-like personality. Its lumpy curves and offbeat shapes read as informal and characterful, evoking hand-crafted signage and cartoon title lettering rather than a strict modern system.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable display voice with a hand-made, deliberately imperfect finish. Its consistent heaviness paired with wavy outlines suggests a focus on charm and humor over neutrality, aiming to stand out and feel human rather than engineered.
The numerals mirror the same soft, irregular shaping, with sturdy forms and rounded joins that keep them cohesive at display sizes. Spacing appears comfortable and airy in text samples, but the dense weight and small counters suggest it will feel most at home when given room to breathe.
