A heavy, rounded sans with slightly irregular, hand-cut geometry and softened corners. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with subtle swelling and a gently wobbly baseline/vertical rhythm that gives the letters a lively, non-mechanical feel. Counters are open and generously sized for the weight, and curves dominate construction, while terminals tend to finish bluntly with a soft, wedge-like or chiseled edge. The overall spacing reads roomy, supporting the wide, poster-friendly silhouette.
Best suited for short-to-medium display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where its bold silhouettes and cheerful irregularity can be appreciated. It also fits well in children’s content, event graphics, and social media promos that benefit from a friendly, handmade energy.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, with a humorous, informal character that suggests hand lettering or cut-paper signage. Its springy shapes and mild irregularities feel friendly rather than strict, leaning into a casual, expressive voice that works well when you want personality without resorting to script.
The design appears intended to deliver a warm, attention-grabbing display voice: sturdy enough to read at a glance, but intentionally imperfect in rhythm and terminal shapes to feel human and playful.
Lowercase forms show a particularly playful rhythm, with simple single-storey shapes and rounded joins. Numerals are similarly chunky and readable, with an overall emphasis on big, clear silhouettes rather than precision detailing.
