A rounded sans with softly squared curves and consistently low-contrast strokes. Corners and terminals are gently blunted, giving letters a smooth, molded feel rather than sharp geometric cuts. Proportions are fairly even and readable, with open apertures and generous counters; round characters stay broadly circular while straighter strokes retain a subtle organic wobble. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (notably the a and g), and numerals follow the same friendly, rounded construction.
Well-suited to interface labels, product branding, and packaging where a friendly voice is desired without sacrificing clarity. The open forms and soft terminals also work well for headings and short-to-medium text in posters, signage, and editorial callouts where a clean but personable sans is appropriate.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, balancing cleanliness with a lightly informal, human touch. It feels contemporary and easygoing rather than technical, with rounded shapes that read as friendly and inviting in text.
Designed to provide an accessible, modern sans with rounded, softened geometry that keeps text comfortable and legible while adding a subtle, informal character.
Distinctive details include a lively, slightly playful diagonal energy in letters like K, V, W, X, and Y, and a clear, rounded-tailed Q. In running text, the rhythm stays smooth and even, with spacing that supports comfortable paragraph reading while preserving a bit of personality in individual glyph shapes.
