A tall, slender sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Forms are simplified and open, with narrow letter bodies and generous internal counters that keep the texture light and airy. Curves are smooth and slightly organic, giving the outlines a hand-drawn regularity rather than geometric rigidity. Spacing reads even in text, with a consistent vertical rhythm and minimal stroke modulation.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly, informal tone is desired—such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand accents. It can also work well for children’s materials, invitations, and social graphics where a light, approachable texture is more important than dense text economy.
The overall tone feels approachable and lighthearted, with a gentle, informal personality. Its narrow, elongated proportions and rounded endings create a friendly, slightly whimsical voice that avoids harshness and feels conversational.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans structure with a handmade, softened finish—prioritizing warmth and charm while retaining clear letterforms and straightforward readability.
Uppercase shapes stay simple and legible, while lowercase introduces a more handwritten flavor in key forms like the single-storey a and g. Numerals follow the same slim, rounded construction and sit comfortably alongside the letters for mixed text settings.
