A heavy, rounded sans with blunt terminals and softly squared corners. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, but with visible irregularities that create a stamped or hand-cut texture along edges and joins. Counters are roomy and simplified, and curves tend toward broad, circular shapes rather than sharp geometry. Spacing feels slightly uneven in a deliberate way, giving lines a lively rhythm while maintaining clear letterforms at display sizes.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing copy such as posters, headlines, stickers, packaging, and bold brand marks where the textured edge can be appreciated. It can work for playful editorial accents and children’s materials, but the heavy weight and roughness may feel dense in long passages or at small sizes.
The overall tone is warm, informal, and tactile—more like inked rubber type or cut-paper lettering than a polished digital grotesk. Its chunky mass and gentle roundness read as approachable and slightly nostalgic, with a casual, DIY energy.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly presence with an intentionally imperfect, hand-made finish. It prioritizes approachability and impact, combining rounded, simplified forms with subtle roughness to evoke analog printing or handcrafted signage.
Capitals are compact and sturdy, with simplified diagonals and wide bowls that keep interior space open. Numerals match the same bold, softened construction, favoring legibility over precision; the texture is consistent across the set and becomes a defining feature in continuous text.
