A heavy, rounded display face with soft, blobby contours and an inky, hand-drawn construction. Strokes show noticeable interior pitting and speckling, creating a worn-print texture rather than clean counters. Terminals are blunt and slightly uneven, with gentle wobble in curves and varied stroke swelling that gives each glyph a stamped or marker-like presence. Overall spacing and widths are irregular in a natural way, reinforcing the handmade rhythm while keeping letterforms broadly simple and readable.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of copy where texture and personality are desirable—posters, stickers, playful packaging, event flyers, and editorial callouts. It can also work for children’s or casual entertainment titles, especially when a rough, printed-on-paper feel is appropriate.
The font conveys a playful, scrappy energy—friendly and approachable, but with a gritty, imperfect finish. Its mottled texture and lumpy silhouettes suggest DIY craft, zines, or screen-printed posters, adding character and spontaneity to short messages.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly display voice while baking in a pre-worn texture, mimicking imperfect ink coverage and distressed printing. It prioritizes charm and tactile character over geometric precision, aiming to make text feel handmade and lively.
The distressed detail is concentrated as small voids and chips within the black shapes, so it remains visible at headline sizes and becomes more subtle as sizes decrease. Curves and bowls are generously rounded, and punctuation and numerals share the same speckled, inky treatment for consistent tone.
