A single-line outline serif with softly rounded terminals and gently bracketed, blobby serifs. The contour is consistently drawn and slightly wavy, giving the shapes a hand-inked feel rather than rigid geometry. Proportions are broadly comfortable and readable, with round bowls, modest apertures, and a lively baseline rhythm; the lowercase includes single-storey forms (notably a and g) and simple, open punctuation-like detailing in joins and ears. Numerals and capitals keep the same cushioned outline treatment, producing an airy interior with clear counters and a uniform stroke envelope.
Best suited to display settings where the outline can be appreciated—headlines, posters, short pull quotes, packaging, and playful signage. It can also work for logos or titles that need a friendly, retro flavor, especially when paired with simple fills, color, or layering effects.
The overall tone is whimsical and approachable, evoking vintage children’s books, casual signage, and cozy craft aesthetics. Its outlined construction reads decorative and lighthearted, with a gentle nostalgia rather than a formal or corporate voice.
Designed to deliver a decorative serif voice through an approachable outline construction, combining classic letter skeletons with softened, hand-drawn contours for charm and visibility in display typography.
The outline thickness is even and sufficiently separated from the inner negative space, which helps letter interiors stay open in larger sizes. Rounded corners and softened serifs reduce sharpness and create a buoyant texture across lines of text.
