A compact, heavy sans with a hand-cut, slightly off-kilter construction. Strokes are broadly uniform and end in blunt, squared terminals, while bowls and counters stay relatively small, creating dense, punchy silhouettes. Curves are simplified and sometimes flattened, and many glyphs show subtle angular kinks and uneven joins that produce a lively, imperfect rhythm. Overall spacing feels tight and the set reads as a bold, blocky display face rather than a text workhorse.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as posters, headlines, cover art, packaging callouts, and playful branding. It also works well for kid-oriented materials, labels, stickers, and social graphics where a bold, friendly voice is desired. Use generous sizing and spacing to keep counters open and preserve readability.
The font conveys a playful, mischievous tone, like cut-paper lettering or a cartoon title card. Its wobble and intentional roughness suggest informality and humor, with a retro, do-it-yourself charm that feels energetic and approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a deliberately imperfect, handmade feel. Its simplified geometry and bouncy stance prioritize personality and immediacy over neutrality, aiming for a distinctive display look that stands out quickly in informal contexts.
The sample text shows strong color on the page and consistent weight, with the irregular outlines creating noticeable texture across lines. At larger sizes the quirky details become a feature; at smaller sizes the tight counters and chunky shapes may reduce clarity, especially in dense passages.
