A heavy, soft-edged sans with rounded corners and slightly irregular, hand-cut contours. Strokes stay broadly even, but edges wobble subtly, creating an organic rhythm rather than geometric precision. Counters are compact and often off-center, with single-storey forms in the lowercase and a tall, sturdy x-height that keeps words dense and readable. Overall spacing feels lively and variable, with letterforms that sit firmly upright while retaining a gently lopsided, buoyant silhouette.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where personality matters: posters, playful branding, product packaging, children’s materials, and attention-grabbing headlines. It can also work for logos or social graphics where a friendly, hand-made tone is desired, while long passages may feel visually heavy due to the dense, chunky texture.
The font reads as upbeat and humorous, with a kid-friendly, cartoon energy. Its chunky shapes and imperfect outlines suggest spontaneity and approachability, giving text a casual, hand-made warmth. The overall tone is expressive and informal rather than serious or technical.
The design intention appears to be a bold, approachable display sans that prioritizes charm and punchy silhouette over strict consistency. By combining sturdy construction with intentionally imperfect contours, it aims to add humor and warmth while staying legible at typical headline sizes.
Round letters like O, C, and G appear slightly squashed and asymmetrical, and diagonals (K, V, W, X) have a cut-paper feel with softened joins. Numerals match the same playful massing, with bold, simplified silhouettes that favor character over neutrality.
