A rounded, gently irregular sans with monolinear strokes and soft, slightly tapered terminals. Forms are compact and tall with relatively small lowercase bodies, creating a crisp vertical rhythm and a light, airy texture in text. Curves are smooth and open, while joins and stems show subtle hand-drawn variance that keeps repeated shapes from feeling mechanical. Numerals follow the same simple, rounded construction, with clear silhouettes and modest interior space.
Well-suited to branding and packaging that benefits from a personable, handcrafted feel, and to posters or headlines where its tall, rounded shapes can stand out. It also works for short blocks of text—taglines, quotes, and UI microcopy—when a friendly, informal voice is desired.
The overall tone is warm and unpretentious, with a lightly retro, hand-made friendliness. Its soft edges and slightly quirky proportions give it an easygoing voice that feels conversational rather than corporate or technical.
The design appears intended to blend simple rounded construction with subtle humanist irregularities, producing a legible sans that feels casual and characterful without relying on overt ornamentation.
Uppercase shapes stay simple and geometric, while the lowercase introduces more personality through asymmetric bowls and gently hooked strokes in a few letters, which adds motion in running text. Spacing appears comfortable, and the open apertures help maintain clarity despite the compact proportions.
