A rounded, monoline sans with soft terminals and gently irregular, hand-drawn rhythm. Strokes keep a consistent thickness while curves stay open and roomy, giving counters a clear, uncluttered feel. Proportions are simple and slightly quirky: the uppercase set is clean and geometric-leaning, while the lowercase introduces more personality through rounded bowls, modest ascenders, and compact x-height. Numerals follow the same smooth, single-stroke logic with friendly, rounded shaping.
Well-suited to friendly branding, packaging, and editorial display where a soft, approachable voice is desired. It can work for short-to-medium passages in informal contexts, and it performs especially well in headings, posters, and signage where its rounded forms and open counters can be appreciated.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a lightly whimsical character that feels personable rather than strict. Its rounded ends and subtle unevenness read as inviting and human, making text feel relaxed and conversational.
The font appears designed to blend the cleanliness of a simple sans with the warmth of hand-drawn lettering, prioritizing friendliness and readability through rounded terminals, consistent stroke weight, and open forms.
The design favors clarity over precision: joins and curves are softened, and spacing feels generous, which helps maintain legibility at larger sizes while preserving an easygoing texture. Uppercase forms appear more restrained than the lowercase, creating a pleasant contrast between headings and running text.
