A light, slanted sans with rounded construction and gently irregular, hand-drawn rhythm. Strokes stay mostly even, with subtle modulation from curves, and terminals are soft and slightly tapered rather than sharply cut. Counters are generous and forms lean toward circular/elliptical geometry, producing wide bowls (notably in O, o, e, and 8) and open apertures in letters like c and s. Ascenders are tall and clean, while several lowercase letters feature distinctive looped descenders and one-storey structures, contributing to an informal, written feel.
Well-suited to branding and packaging that benefits from a friendly, handcrafted tone, as well as posters, headlines, and social media graphics where its light, open forms can breathe. It can also work for short editorial callouts or UI accents when used at sizes that preserve its thin strokes and relaxed rhythm.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, reading like neat marker or felt-pen writing rather than a strict geometric system. Its openness and soft curves make it feel friendly and lighthearted, with a contemporary, informal voice suited to conversational messaging.
The design appears intended to provide a casual, handwritten-leaning sans for contemporary display use—combining clean, rounded construction with subtle irregularities to keep the texture human and approachable rather than mechanical.
Letterforms show deliberate idiosyncrasies that enhance character: single-storey a and g, a looped y descender, and a narrow, simple i with a small dot. Numerals are similarly rounded and casual, with a clean, minimal 1 and open, curving shapes in 2 and 3. Spacing appears comfortable and airy in running text, supporting readability at larger sizes where the delicate strokes can remain clear.
