A slanted sans with rounded, softly swelling strokes and consistently low contrast. Letterforms lean noticeably forward with smooth, continuous curves and gently tapered joins, producing an informal, hand-drawn rhythm without becoming messy. Counters are open and generously shaped, and many terminals end in subtle, brush-like points rather than flat cuts. Overall proportions feel balanced and readable, with compact curves and slightly variable stroke widths that add warmth and motion.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a warm, informal feel is desired, such as brand marks, packaging, social graphics, posters, and pull quotes. It’s particularly effective in headlines and display sizes where the slant and soft terminals can carry personality without sacrificing clarity.
The tone is friendly and conversational, with a light, upbeat energy. Its italic posture and rounded construction give it a personable, informal voice suited to casual messaging and modern, approachable branding.
The design appears intended to blend the clarity of a sans with the friendliness of casual handwriting. The goal seems to be an expressive, modern italic that feels approachable and energetic while remaining clean enough for everyday display use.
The uppercase maintains a simple, rounded geometry while the lowercase introduces more personality through single-storey forms and soft, flowing joins. Figures follow the same rounded, slightly calligraphic logic, keeping the set cohesive in running text.
