A compact, rounded display sans with monoline strokes and softly squared curves that feel built from rounded-rectangle geometry. Many glyphs feature small cut-in notches and chiseled joints—especially at shoulders, bowls, and diagonals—creating a subtle stencil-like segmentation without breaking legibility. Counters are open and fairly generous for the width, and the overall rhythm is even, with consistently blunted terminals and smooth, slightly squarish rounds in letters like O, C, and Q.
Best suited to headlines, short titles, packaging, and brand marks where the notched detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for playful UI labels or signage-style graphics, but for long-form text the repeated cut-ins may become visually busy.
The tone is cheerful and slightly mischievous, with a retro sign-painter flavor and a handmade sensibility despite the clean construction. Its rounded, softened shapes keep it approachable, while the carved details add character and a bit of comic/novelty energy.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly rounded sans that stands apart through small carved notches and segmented joins, combining clean geometry with a lightly handcrafted, retro display personality.
Uppercase and lowercase share a coherent, modular build, and the numerals follow the same rounded, notched logic, giving mixed-content settings a uniform color. The distinctive interior cut-ins become more apparent at larger sizes, where they read as intentional detailing rather than texture.
