A lively, hand-drawn sans with subtly irregular outlines and a gently wavering baseline feel. Strokes show modest contrast and frequent wedge-like terminals that create a cut-paper or brush-knife impression, especially in diagonals and joins. Counters are generally open and rounded, with simplified, compact interior spaces that keep forms bold and readable. Proportions are slightly condensed overall, while individual glyphs vary in width, adding an informal rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited to display sizes where its handmade texture and wedge terminals can be appreciated—such as children’s titles, playful branding, packaging, posters, and short editorial headings. It can work for brief passages or captions when a casual, friendly voice is desired, but its irregularity is most effective in shorter blocks of text.
The font conveys an easygoing, whimsical tone—more human than mechanical—suggesting spontaneity and warmth. Its uneven details and chiseled ends read as intentionally imperfect, giving text a playful, crafty personality suitable for lighthearted messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a personable, handcrafted sans look that feels expressive without becoming fully script-like. By combining simplified sans construction with irregular widths and chiseled terminals, it aims for a distinctive, approachable voice that stands out in informal and creative contexts.
Distinctive features include single-storey lowercase forms, buoyant curves in letters like C/O/S, and pointed/wedge ends on strokes in characters such as A, K, V, W, X, and Y. Numerals follow the same handmade logic, with slightly skewed curves and terminals that keep the set cohesive. In longer text, the texture stays energetic, with consistent stroke color despite the intentionally irregular drawing.
