A compact, monoline sans with rounded terminals and softly squared curves. Strokes stay even throughout, with gentle modulation only from corner rounding rather than contrast. Proportions run tall and slightly condensed, with open apertures and simple, geometric construction that keeps counters clean at text sizes. The lowercase shows single-storey forms and straightforward joins, while numerals follow the same rounded, uniform-stroke logic for a cohesive set.
Works well for short to medium-length text where a personable tone is desirable, such as UI labels, wayfinding-style headings, educational materials, and brand accents. Its compact width makes it useful for tight layouts, while the rounded forms keep it readable for display sizes and subheads.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a subtly quirky, handcrafted feel. Its rounded endings and compact rhythm give it a warm, slightly retro voice that reads as approachable rather than corporate or technical.
Likely designed to deliver a clean sans foundation with a humanized, playful edge—combining simple geometric letterforms with softened corners to feel modern yet informal, and to stay legible in compact settings.
Curves tend to be slightly flattened into rounded-rectangle shapes, giving the face a distinctive “softened geometry” look. Spacing appears comfortable and even in running text, helping maintain clarity despite the condensed, tall proportions.
