A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners, bulbous terminals, and an uneven, hand-inked silhouette. Strokes are broadly uniform but wobble subtly, with occasional swelling and flattening that gives letters a poured-ink feel. Interior counters and bowls show speckling and worn voids, and edges look scuffed as if printed on rough stock. The overall rhythm is lively and slightly irregular, with some glyph-to-glyph width variation that enhances the handmade texture.
Best suited to display settings where texture is part of the message: posters, packaging, labels, stickers, apparel graphics, and social media headers. It can work for short paragraphs at larger sizes, but the internal wear and speckling suggest prioritizing titles, callouts, and branding moments over small UI text.
The font reads as casual and approachable, with a playful, crafty personality. Its worn texture adds a gritty, vintage print vibe—like a well-used rubber stamp or screenprint—making it feel energetic and informal rather than polished or corporate.
Likely designed to deliver a friendly, rounded display voice while baking in instant character through a worn-print texture. The combination of soft geometry and deliberate imperfections aims to evoke analog production—stamping, screenprinting, or aged signage—without losing overall legibility.
Curves dominate the construction, and diagonals (like in V/W/X) keep the same rounded, softened character rather than sharp joins. The distressed patterning appears inside strokes and counters, creating a consistent “weathered ink” effect across letters and numerals.
