A decorative outline serif with softly inflated contours and rounded terminals. Letterforms are built from a single, even outline stroke, producing hollow interiors and a light, airy color on the page. Serifs are small and blunted, with gentle bracketing and a slightly bouncy baseline rhythm. Curves are generously rounded and counters are open, giving the shapes a puffy, hand-drawn feel while remaining consistently constructed across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, product packaging, and logo marks where the outlined, rounded serifs can be appreciated. It also fits playful editorial accents and children’s or entertainment-themed materials, especially when paired with a simpler text face for body copy.
The tone is cheerful and nostalgic, evoking vintage packaging, carnival signage, and children’s book display type. Its hollow construction adds a lighthearted, crafty personality—more playful than formal—while still reading clearly at display sizes.
The design appears intended to provide a friendly, vintage-leaning display voice with an outline construction that stays light while still feeling substantial through its inflated curves and soft serif cues.
The outline-only build means the type relies on background contrast and sufficient size for clarity; the inner whitespace and rounded detailing can soften edges further in busy compositions. Numerals match the letterforms with the same rounded, bulb-like silhouettes and gentle serif treatment.
