A heavy, rounded sans with subtly flared, wedge-like terminals that create a cut-in, chiseled feel at stroke ends. Proportions are broadly compact with generous counters and a gently uneven rhythm, giving lines a slightly wavy, hand-shaped texture despite consistent stroke weight. Curves are full and soft, while joins and terminals often taper or notch, adding angular punctuation to otherwise bulbous forms. Uppercase reads sturdy and blocky; lowercase maintains simple, single-storey structures (notably a and g) and upright stems with minimal modulation.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text where the decorative terminals can read clearly—posters, packaging, event flyers, and themed branding. It also works well for playful editorial callouts, product labels, and titles that benefit from a retro-novelty voice.
The overall tone is playful and slightly spooky, evoking seasonal display lettering, classic cartoon titling, and storybook headline energy. Its bouncy silhouettes and flared terminals feel expressive rather than technical, suggesting humor, magic, or retro novelty without becoming illegible.
Likely intended as a characterful display sans that injects motion and charm through flared terminals and softly sculpted geometry, offering a novelty/seasonal tone while retaining straightforward letter construction.
The design’s personality comes largely from terminal treatment: many strokes end in small wedges or scooped cuts that create a lively sparkle in text. Spacing appears comfortable at display sizes, and the numerals match the letterforms with the same chunky, rounded construction and decorative terminal cuts.
