A lively, hand-drawn sans with subtly irregular curves and a gently uneven rhythm that gives the alphabet a human, made-by-hand feel. Strokes are mostly monolinear with soft swelling at turns, rounded terminals, and slightly wavy stems that keep counters open and forms legible. Uppercase shapes are simplified and sturdy, while the lowercase introduces more characterful construction—single-storey a and g, a compact e, and a bouncy s—creating a natural, informal texture in text. Numerals follow the same softened geometry, with rounded bowls and mild asymmetry that reads clearly without looking mechanical.
Well suited to packaging, café or retail signage, posters, and brand headings where a personable voice is needed. It can also work for short editorial callouts or captions when a friendly, informal texture is desirable, though its irregularity is best showcased at medium to larger sizes.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a casual charm that suggests handmade signage and friendly packaging. Its quirks feel intentional rather than rough, balancing playfulness with enough clarity to stay readable in short passages.
The design appears intended to deliver a human, approachable sans voice—combining simple, sturdy letterforms with controlled irregularities to avoid a sterile, geometric feel while retaining clear readability.
Spacing appears moderately open, and the slightly varying silhouette from letter to letter adds movement across a line. The italic-free, upright stance combined with soft terminals makes it feel contemporary-casual while still hinting at retro display lettering.
