A rounded geometric sans with smooth, continuous curves and a consistent stroke presence. Forms lean on circular bowls and softened corners, with generous apertures and clear counters that keep the texture open despite the heavy ink coverage. Terminals are predominantly rounded, and joins are simplified, giving letters a compact, stable silhouette. The lowercase shows single-storey constructions (notably a and g) and a tidy, uncluttered rhythm in text, while capitals retain broad, circular proportions and straightforward structure.
Best suited to display sizes where the rounded geometry can be a defining graphic element—headlines, brand marks, packaging, posters, and short-callout signage. It can also work for UI labels or navigational text when a friendly, soft tone is desired, especially in larger sizes.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a playful, slightly toy-like softness that feels contemporary rather than retro. Its roundness and simplified geometry create an inviting voice that reads as friendly and easygoing, suitable for upbeat or lighthearted messaging.
Designed to deliver a clean, contemporary sans voice with softened geometry, prioritizing approachability and visual cohesion across letters and numerals. The emphasis on circular construction and rounded terminals suggests an intention to feel modern, simple, and characterful without relying on ornament.
Distinctive circular punctuation-like dots on i/j and strongly rounded bowls create a cohesive, bubbly color on the line. Numerals are similarly rounded and sturdy, matching the letterforms in weight and curvature, which helps maintain consistency in UI or branding systems.
