A monoline sans with rounded, gently uneven strokes and softly tapered terminals that give it a hand-drawn regularity. Curves are smooth and open, with circular bowls and simple construction that stays consistent across upper- and lowercase. Proportions feel compact with modest apertures, and the overall rhythm shows slight organic wobble rather than rigid geometric precision. Numerals follow the same simple, rounded logic, with clear shapes and minimal detailing.
Well suited to short-to-medium headlines, packaging copy, and brand marks that want a friendly, informal voice. It can also work for posters, social graphics, and children’s or lifestyle-oriented materials where a hand-touched sans feel is beneficial. For long passages, it’s likely best used sparingly as an accent face paired with a more neutral text font.
The font reads warm and personable, with a casual, homemade character that feels friendly rather than formal. Its subtle irregularities add charm and approachability, lending a lightly playful tone without becoming overly decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans foundation with a human, hand-rendered finish—balancing legibility with an intentionally imperfect, approachable texture for expressive everyday typography.
The uppercase has a straightforward, sign-like presence, while the lowercase adds more personality through rounded joins and slightly quirky shapes (notably in forms like g, y, and w). Counters remain clear in text, and the soft terminal treatment helps keep lines from feeling harsh at display sizes.
