A very thin, monoline sans with a deliberately hand-drawn construction and lightly irregular spacing. Forms mix soft, rounded curves with occasional sharp joins and angular strokes, creating a slightly faceted feel in letters like K, M, N, V, W, X, and Z. Terminals are mostly blunt or softly tapered, with open apertures and generous interior space; bowls and circles (O, Q, o, e) stay light and airy. Proportions vary by glyph, with uneven widths and a loose baseline rhythm that reads like neat marker or pen lettering rather than rigid geometry.
Works best for short to medium display text where a casual, hand-rendered voice is desired—titles, poster lines, packaging callouts, invitations, and playful branding. The very thin strokes favor larger sizes and higher-contrast backgrounds for comfortable reading.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a whimsical, personal note that feels approachable and human. The thin strokes and relaxed rhythm keep it lighthearted, while the occasional angularity adds a hint of edginess without becoming harsh.
The design appears intended to capture the charm of clean hand lettering in a font, prioritizing personality and a natural drawing rhythm over strict typographic regularity. Its blend of rounded forms and occasional angular facets suggests an expressive, contemporary display sans meant to feel informal yet curated.
Uppercase and lowercase are clearly differentiated, but both share the same sketch-like stroke behavior and relaxed alignment. Numerals are simple and handwritten in character, matching the alphabet’s light touch and slightly variable proportions.
