A rounded sans with softly blunted terminals and gently irregular curves that feel hand-drawn rather than mechanically perfect. Strokes stay consistently thick with minimal modulation, and counters are open and simple, keeping forms clear at text sizes. Uppercase shapes are broad and slightly squat, while lowercase letters show compact proportions with smooth joins and a single-storey feel where applicable. Numerals follow the same softened geometry, with sturdy, simple silhouettes and rounded corners throughout.
Well-suited to friendly branding, packaging, and poster work where a warm, informal voice is desired. It can also work for signage and display copy thanks to its bold-ish presence and rounded clarity, and for children’s or educational materials where an approachable tone helps readability.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a casual, handmade flavor that reads as friendly and human. Its soft corners and slightly uneven rhythm give it a playful, conversational character without becoming overly quirky or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans foundation with a human, hand-rendered softness—prioritizing approachability and visual warmth over strict geometric precision.
Spacing appears comfortably generous, helping the thick, rounded strokes avoid clogging in continuous text. The design maintains a consistent softness across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive texture suited to branding-style headlines as well as short paragraphs.
