A rounded, humanist sans with softly flared stroke endings and subtly irregular curves that suggest a hand-drawn construction. Strokes show gentle modulation and tapered terminals rather than blunt cuts, creating a slightly calligraphic rhythm while remaining clearly upright. Proportions are open and readable, with generous counters and smooth bowls; diagonals and joins are softened, giving a cohesive, personable texture across text.
Well suited to branding and packaging that benefits from a handcrafted, approachable voice, as well as headlines and short text where its lively rhythm can be appreciated. It also fits children’s media, editorial pull quotes, posters, and other display-oriented applications that call for warmth without becoming overly decorative.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a playful, storybook-like friendliness. Its mild irregularity and soft terminals make it feel approachable and conversational rather than technical or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly, human touch within a clean sans framework—pairing rounded geometry with subtle stroke taper to create an easygoing, personable reading experience.
Uppercase forms lean simple and rounded, while the lowercase introduces more personality through curved entry/exit strokes and single-storey shapes. Numerals follow the same soft, slightly calligraphic logic, keeping a consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
