A rounded, monoline sans with soft terminals and slightly irregular, hand-drawn stroke behavior. Forms lean on simple circular and elliptical geometry, with open apertures and generous counters that keep the texture light and breathable. Proportions are relaxed rather than rigidly geometric, with subtly varied curves and joins that create an informal rhythm. Numerals and capitals follow the same gentle, rounded construction, maintaining a consistent line weight across straight and curved strokes.
Well-suited to lighthearted display applications such as posters, packaging, invitations, classroom materials, and social media graphics. It can also work for short paragraphs where a casual, friendly tone is desired, especially at comfortable reading sizes.
The overall tone is warm and easygoing, with a friendly, conversational feel. Its slight irregularities suggest a human touch, giving text a playful, approachable voice without becoming overly decorative.
The design appears intended to provide a clean, readable sans voice with a hand-drawn warmth—combining simple rounded construction with subtle irregularity to keep the texture personable and informal.
In continuous text the spacing reads open and uncluttered, helping the thin strokes stay clear on a light background. Round letters (like O, C, and e) set the dominant character, while diagonal forms (like V, W, and Y) keep similarly softened terminals so nothing feels sharp or mechanical.
