A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and full, compact counters that keep the color dense and even. Curves are broadly circular and terminals are blunt, giving the shapes a sturdy, cutout-like feel. The rhythm is intentionally irregular: many glyphs show subtle tilts, uneven joins, and slightly wavy strokes that create a hand-made wobble while staying clearly legible. Uppercase forms are simple and geometric, while lowercase and numerals maintain the same thick, cushioned construction with distinct silhouettes.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as headlines, posters, titles, packaging callouts, and brand marks that want a friendly, playful presence. It can also work for children’s content, casual editorial pull quotes, and event promotions where a bold, personable voice is desired.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a humorous, slightly goofy bounce that reads as informal rather than corporate. Its weight and rounded construction make it feel warm and welcoming, while the deliberate wobble adds personality and a DIY, poster-like energy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum readability at display sizes while projecting a friendly, informal personality through rounded geometry and a controlled, hand-drawn wobble. It prioritizes charm and impact over strict typographic neutrality.
In text settings the dense strokes create strong impact, and the mild irregularities become more noticeable at larger sizes where the font’s character reads as expressive rather than strictly neutral. Counters are relatively small for the weight, so spacing and line breaks benefit from generous breathing room in longer passages.
