A rounded, sans-serif outline with an added inner inline that creates a layered, hollow look. Strokes are monolinear and drawn as open contours, with softly squared corners and generous curves that keep counters large and airy. Proportions feel compact and friendly, with a tall lowercase and simplified, geometric construction; the inline/offset detail introduces a subtle 3D or sticker-like depth across many letters and numerals.
Best suited for display applications such as posters, headlines, playful branding, packaging, stickers, and social graphics where the hollow outline can read clearly at medium to large sizes. It also works well for titles or short bursts of text where a retro, cartoon-like voice is desired.
The overall tone is lighthearted and nostalgic, evoking playful display lettering seen in comics, arcade-era graphics, and DIY signage. The hollow construction and inset line give it a crafty, animated energy that reads as fun rather than formal.
Designed to deliver a friendly outline display style with extra dimensionality from an inner inline, aiming for maximum personality and visual lift without relying on heavy weight. The construction prioritizes bold silhouette recognition and a decorative interior rhythm for attention-grabbing typography.
The outline-plus-inline treatment creates a busy interior texture that becomes more prominent at smaller sizes or tight spacing, so it visually prefers room to breathe. Curved glyphs (like O, C, G, Q, 6, 8, 9) emphasize the bubbly character, while diagonals and joins keep a slightly hand-made, irregular charm.
