A softly slanted, monoline sans with rounded terminals and an easy, handwritten rhythm. Strokes keep a consistent thickness with gently tapered joins, producing smooth curves and open counters. Proportions are relaxed and slightly irregular, with simple, single-storey forms in the lowercase and a modestly bouncy baseline feel. Numerals follow the same casual construction, with open shapes and rounded turns that keep the overall texture light and airy.
Well-suited to branding and packaging that benefit from a friendly, handcrafted voice, as well as posters, invitations, and social graphics where warmth matters more than strict typographic neutrality. It works best at display and short-to-medium text sizes where the rounded monoline construction and casual rhythm remain clear.
The tone is warm and personable, like neat marker lettering or casual note-taking. Its slight irregularities and rounded endings give it a human, conversational feel rather than a strictly engineered one.
The design appears intended to provide a clean, legible handwritten alternative within a sans framework—maintaining simplicity and readability while adding softness, motion, and personality through rounded terminals and a gentle slant.
The italic slant is built into the letterforms rather than added mechanically, with curves and diagonals maintaining a consistent flow. Spacing appears comfortable and forgiving, supporting readable word shapes while preserving the informal, hand-drawn character.
