A slanted, rounded sans with thick, brush-like strokes and softly tapered terminals. Letterforms are built from smooth curves and gentle joins, with a lively, slightly irregular rhythm that suggests a drawn rather than constructed origin. Counters are open and generous, and curves dominate over straight segments, producing a buoyant texture in words and lines. Proportions lean compact in the lowercase, with a relatively modest x-height and prominent ascenders/descenders that add vertical motion.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where its energetic, handwritten character can be appreciated—such as branding, packaging, posters, and social graphics. It can also work for friendly editorial pull quotes or children-focused materials, where warmth and approachability are priorities.
The overall tone is warm and personable, reading as upbeat and informal. Its soft terminals and springy shapes evoke a friendly, conversational voice suited to lighthearted messaging rather than strict corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly, hand-drawn impression in a clean sans framework, prioritizing charm and approachability through rounded terminals, smooth curves, and a consistently lively slant.
Capitals maintain the same rounded, flowing logic as the lowercase, avoiding hard corners and keeping a consistent stroke feel across the set. Numerals match the letters’ soft, slightly bouncy construction, favoring rounded forms and clear silhouettes that fit comfortably in display settings.
