A compact, heavy sans with simplified, monoline strokes and soft, rounded outer corners. The construction is intentionally irregular: stems and bowls lean subtly, curves feel slightly lopsided, and baseline/height alignment varies just enough to create a hand-drawn, cut-paper rhythm. Counters are relatively open for the weight, with short terminals and minimal contrast, producing sturdy silhouettes that stay readable while maintaining a lively wobble.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings such as posters, playful editorial callouts, packaging, event titles, and children’s or educational materials where personality is more important than strict regularity. It can work for brief UI labels or signage when a friendly, informal voice is desired, but the intentional wobble is most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is informal and humorous, with a buoyant, off-kilter energy that reads as approachable rather than strict. Its slightly wonky geometry suggests a DIY, zine-like sensibility suited to lighthearted messaging and characterful headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold sans voice with deliberate imperfections, trading geometric precision for charm and motion. It aims to feel approachable and handcrafted while staying simple and solid enough for clear, high-impact display typography.
Uppercase forms are blocky and emphatic, while lowercase shapes are simple and rounded, with a single-storey feel in several letters. Numerals are bold and friendly, matching the uneven, animated stance of the alphabet and keeping a consistent “handmade” cadence across lines of text.
