A chunky, rounded sans with a deliberately irregular, hand-cut rhythm. Strokes stay fairly uniform while terminals and joins show subtle wobble and varying curvature, giving the outlines a slightly compressed, cutout feel. Counters are generous and mostly circular to oval, with compact proportions and simplified forms that keep shapes clear at display sizes. The overall spacing reads steady and grid-friendly, while individual glyphs retain small, intentional asymmetries that add character.
Best suited for display applications such as posters, headlines, packaging, and short UI labels where a warm, quirky voice is desired. It can work for short passages when set with ample size and spacing, but its dense texture and playful irregularity are most effective in titles, callouts, and branding statements.
The tone is cheerful and informal, with a craft-like, handmade presence that feels approachable rather than technical. Its bouncy silhouette and soft, blocky forms suggest playful signage, kids-oriented messaging, and lighthearted branding where personality matters as much as legibility.
The design appears intended to blend simple geometric construction with a handmade, cut-paper irregularity, creating a sturdy sans that feels human and fun. It aims for immediate readability with bold silhouettes while adding personality through subtly uneven curves and varied terminals.
Uppercase letters present broad, simplified structures, and the lowercase maintains a sturdy, single-story, geometric feel with noticeable shape variance across letters. Numerals are heavy and friendly, designed to read clearly in short strings. In text samples the texture is dark and energetic, prioritizing impact over quiet neutrality.
