A monoline sans with soft, rounded construction and gently irregular stroke behavior that evokes a hand-drawn marker or pen. Curves are broad and open, terminals are mostly rounded, and joins stay smooth rather than crisp, giving the letterforms a relaxed rhythm. Proportions feel lightly condensed in places with generous interior space, and the overall texture is even and clean at text sizes despite subtle organic wobble.
Works well for short to medium-length text where a light, personable voice is needed—such as UI labels, captions, invitations, packaging callouts, classroom materials, and social media graphics. It can also serve as a gentle display face for headings when paired with a more neutral text font.
The font reads as friendly and informal, with a light, upbeat tone that feels personal rather than corporate. Its rounded forms and slight human variation suggest warmth and approachability, making it well-suited to cheerful, conversational messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans foundation with an approachable, hand-drawn finish—prioritizing friendliness and readability through open shapes, rounded terminals, and an even monoline stroke.
Uppercase forms keep a simple geometric skeleton with softened corners, while lowercase adds more handwritten character in shapes like single-storey a and g. Numerals are similarly rounded and straightforward, maintaining a consistent, uncluttered look across the set.
