A heavy, forward-leaning print style with rounded corners, softened terminals, and broad, slightly irregular curves that mimic marker lettering. Strokes feel brushy yet controlled, with modest modulation and frequent swelling through bends and joins. Counters are compact and often pinched, while apertures tend to be tight, giving the face a dense, high-impact silhouette. The overall rhythm is bouncy and energetic, with subtly varied widths and a hand-drawn consistency rather than strict geometric repetition.
Best suited to short, bold messaging where impact matters: posters, loud headlines, event promos, playful packaging, and sports- or youth-oriented branding. It can work in display text and punchy subheads, but extended small-size reading will benefit from generous tracking and leading.
The tone is upbeat and informal, leaning toward a retro, sporty feel. Its chunky shapes and lively slant read as confident and fun, suggesting motion and personality more than restraint or precision.
The design appears intended to deliver an expressive, hand-made display voice that feels fast, approachable, and strong. Its softened forms and lively slant aim for immediate attention while keeping an informal, friendly character.
Uppercase forms are blocky and emphatic, while lowercase keeps the same weight and slant with simplified, single-storey constructions and rounded detailing. Numerals are similarly stout and friendly, designed to match the headline-like presence of the letters. The dense internal spaces mean it performs best when given enough size and breathing room.
