A heavy, rounded sans with compact proportions and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal modulation and generous internal rounding that keeps counters open despite the weight. Curves lean toward near-circular bowls, while terminals often finish with subtly angled, wedge-like cuts that add a hand-shaped, slightly irregular rhythm. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and short extenders, contributing to a dense, punchy texture in text; punctuation and numerals follow the same chunky, rounded construction.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, product packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a friendly, bold presence. It also works well for children’s content, casual signage, and social graphics where readability at large sizes and a cheerful tone are priorities.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a playful, slightly vintage cartoon feel. Its soft geometry and lively rhythm read as informal and welcoming rather than technical or corporate. The weight and rounded forms give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice suited to lighthearted messaging.
Designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a warm, rounded voice, balancing geometric simplicity with hand-shaped quirks for character. The tall x-height and compact extenders suggest an emphasis on dense, readable headline text, while the angled terminals add distinctive flair without introducing overt decoration.
In running text the color is very dark and consistent, creating strong impact but reducing fine differentiation between similar shapes at smaller sizes. The angled terminal cuts and occasional asymmetries add personality and prevent the forms from feeling purely geometric, especially in letters like S, a, and e and in the dynamic diagonals of K, V, W, and X.
