A chunky slab-serif display face with compact proportions, heavy stems, and softly rounded outer corners. The serifs read as blunt blocks that attach cleanly to the strokes, creating a sturdy rhythm while the overall drawing keeps a hand-shaped feel. Curves are full and slightly irregular, terminals are often bulbous, and joins show gentle asymmetry that gives the letters a lively bounce. Counters are open enough for short text, and the lining figures follow the same weighty, rounded construction with distinctive, simplified forms.
Well suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks that want a friendly, handcrafted presence. It also fits children’s publishing, playful signage, and short emphatic callouts, where its chunky slabs and bouncy outlines can carry personality without relying on decoration.
The tone is cheerful and approachable, with a quirky, storybook personality. Its sturdy slabs add confidence while the uneven, hand-drawn modulation keeps it lighthearted and informal, suggesting craft, play, and nostalgia rather than strict modernism.
The design appears intended to combine the firmness of slab serifs with an intentionally informal, hand-rendered character. It prioritizes charm and recognizability in display settings, aiming for a warm, approachable voice with a hint of retro craft.
The most characteristic details are the soft, almost stamped edges, the slightly wobbly stroke rhythm, and the compact, animated silhouettes across both caps and lowercase. It holds together best at larger sizes where the playful terminals and serif blocks can be appreciated without crowding.
