A heavy, rounded sans with inflated, pillow-like strokes and softly squared counters. The outlines have an intentionally uneven, hand-pressed wobble that creates a textured silhouette while keeping letterforms structurally simple and upright. Terminals are fully rounded, curves are broad and continuous, and interior counters tend toward small, rounded rectangles, giving the font a dense, stamp-like color on the page.
Best suited for display work such as headlines, posters, playful branding, and packaging where bold, friendly impact is needed. It also fits children’s materials, party invitations, and sticker-style graphics, especially when set large with generous tracking.
The overall tone is cheerful and casual, with a slightly goofy, homemade feel. Its blobby rhythm reads as approachable and kid-friendly, leaning toward cartoon and novelty aesthetics rather than formal typography.
The design appears intended to mimic a soft, hand-made marker or foam-stamp look—prioritizing warmth and character over precision. It aims for immediate visual punch with a rounded, tactile feel that stays legible in short phrases.
Spacing and widths vary noticeably across the set, contributing to a lively rhythm in text. The heavy weight and small counters mean readability drops quickly at small sizes, while large settings emphasize the playful, puffy texture.
