A slim, monoline sans with a steady rightward slant and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are built from simple arcs and straight strokes, with a slightly hand-drawn steadiness that keeps curves smooth but not mechanically perfect. Counters are open and generous for the width, ascenders and descenders feel long and elastic, and spacing is relaxed, creating a light, breathable texture in words. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded construction with simple, open shapes.
Works well for short-to-medium text in branding, packaging, posters, and social graphics where a personable, lightweight voice is desired. It also fits headings, pull quotes, and display snippets that benefit from an airy, contemporary handwritten-sans look without becoming overtly script-like.
The overall tone is approachable and informal, with a breezy, note-like rhythm that reads as human and friendly rather than corporate. Its narrow, slanted stance adds motion and a conversational feel, making it suited to warm, casual messaging.
Likely designed to provide a clean, modern sans foundation with a handwritten lean—combining simple geometric curves with a casual, human rhythm. The goal appears to be an informal display/text companion that stays legible while adding warmth and motion.
Uppercase forms stay simple and rounded, while lowercase shows a more handwritten cadence with looping bowls and gently tapered joins. The punctuation and basic symbols in the sample text sit comfortably at text sizes, and the slant remains consistent across lines, reinforcing a cohesive, flowing texture.
