A heavy, rounded display face with soft, swollen curves and compact counters. Many strokes include small wedge-like notches and cut-in details that create a pseudo-stencil rhythm, while terminals tend to be blunt and slightly flared. Proportions are loose and uneven in a deliberate way—some letters read broader and more bulbous while others are more compact—giving the line a lively, hand-shaped cadence. The figures are similarly chunky and curvy, with distinctive interior cutouts that echo the letterforms’ notched motif.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short display copy where its odd details can be appreciated. It can add personality to packaging, event graphics, and logo-style wordmarks, especially in playful or retro-leaning contexts. For long reading, it works better as an accent font rather than a primary text face.
The overall tone is mischievous and cartoonish, with a handmade, prop-like feel that suggests humor and light drama rather than neutrality. Its bouncy silhouettes and quirky cut-ins evoke a retro novelty sensibility, making text feel animated and characterful.
The design appears intended to deliver instant character through exaggerated, rounded forms and consistent notch/cut motifs, prioritizing visual charm and memorability over typographic neutrality. The irregular rhythm and chunky weight suggest it was drawn to stand out in display settings and to create a distinctive texture across a line of text.
At text sizes, the decorative cut-ins and tight counters can visually fill in, so the design reads best when given room to breathe. The distinctive inner cutouts (notably in round forms like O/0/8/9) become a defining texture when repeated across words.
