A rounded sans with soft, monoline strokes and generously curved terminals throughout. Forms lean on circular bowls and open apertures, with slightly irregular, hand-drawn modulation in curves and joins that keeps the texture lively rather than rigidly geometric. Capitals are broad and simple, while lowercase shapes stay compact with clear counters; the overall rhythm is even, with comfortable spacing and smooth, continuous contours.
Well-suited to brand identities that want to feel warm and accessible, as well as packaging, posters, and short display copy where personality matters. It also fits children’s media, educational materials, and social content where rounded, friendly shapes enhance approachability. For longer text, it works best at comfortable sizes where the soft details and open counters stay clear.
The letterforms communicate an easygoing, cheerful tone with a gentle, human touch. Its rounded geometry and softened endings feel inviting and non-authoritative, giving copy a light, friendly personality suited to informal messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans foundation while adding a rounded, hand-friendly character that feels modern and casual. It prioritizes softness, legibility, and an upbeat texture over strict geometric neutrality.
Distinctive details include a single-storey “a” and “g,” a round, open “e,” and a playful “Q” with a short diagonal tail. Numerals echo the same soft geometry, with rounded bowls and simplified structure that prioritizes friendliness over sharp precision.
