A rounded sans with a consistent rightward slant and heavy, low-contrast strokes. Letterforms lean on broad curves and softened corners, with sturdy bowls and gently tapered joins that keep counters open at larger sizes. Proportions feel slightly irregular and lively—particularly in the lowercase—creating a hand-drawn rhythm while staying clean and cohesive. Numerals match the same soft, weighty construction, with simple, readable shapes and minimal detailing.
Works especially well for short to medium-length display text such as headlines, brand marks, packaging callouts, posters, and social content where a friendly, energetic voice is desired. It can also support subheads and emphatic UI labels when a softer, more playful tone is appropriate.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a buoyant, upbeat rhythm that feels conversational rather than corporate. Its rounded forms and slanted stance give it a personable, slightly quirky character suited to friendly messaging and playful branding.
The design appears intended to combine the clarity of a rounded sans with an expressive, informal slant, prioritizing approachability and impact. Its simplified geometry and soft terminals suggest a focus on bold, contemporary communication with a human, playful edge.
Uppercase forms read solid and stable, while the lowercase introduces more bounce and personality through rounded shoulders and simplified, single-storey structures. The slant is consistent across letters and figures, helping text feel dynamic in paragraphs and headlines alike.
