A rounded sans with subtly irregular, hand-drawn geometry and a lively baseline rhythm. Strokes stay even and smooth, with soft, slightly tapered terminals and a gentle wobble that keeps the texture human without becoming messy. Counters are generally open and circular, while joins and curves feel drawn rather than mechanically perfect; proportions vary a bit across glyphs, giving the alphabet a relaxed, animated cadence. The numerals follow the same simple, rounded construction, with clear, uncluttered forms suited to short strings.
Works best for short-to-medium text where personality is desirable: headlines, brand wordmarks, packaging, posters, and editorial pull quotes. It can also suit children’s content and friendly UI moments (labels, badges) when a warm, informal tone is preferred over a neutral system sans.
The overall tone is friendly and conversational, with a playful, slightly whimsical personality. Its mild irregularity reads as warm and approachable, suggesting handcrafted authenticity rather than corporate polish.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans foundation with a deliberately human, hand-drawn character—balancing legibility with an approachable, playful voice for contemporary display and branding use.
Diagonal letters and angled strokes (like A, K, V, W, X, Y) show gentle asymmetry and softened angles, which adds charm at display sizes. In paragraph setting, the informal modulation creates a distinctive texture, so it tends to feel more expressive than strictly utilitarian.
