A slanted sans with rounded, softly tapered strokes and consistently smooth curves. Terminals are blunt and slightly softened, giving the outlines a friendly, brush-like cleanliness without noticeable contrast. Counters are open and circular-to-oval, with a steady rhythm and roomy interior space. Lowercase forms lean humanist, with a single-storey a and g and a gently curved descender on y; the overall spacing reads airy and even, supporting comfortable word shapes in running text.
Works well for friendly branding, packaging, and short editorial passages where an informal italic voice is desirable. Its open shapes and smooth, rounded construction also suit UI accents, pull quotes, and promotional copy that benefits from a warm, approachable tone.
The tone is informal and warm, with a personable, handwritten-leaning energy that stays tidy and legible. It feels modern and relaxed rather than technical or corporate, suited to messaging that aims to be inviting and conversational.
The design appears intended to provide a clean italic sans with a human touch—combining straightforward geometry with softened endings and open counters to keep text feeling light, friendly, and readable.
Round forms like O and 0 are very close in construction, while the numeral set keeps the same soft, rounded stroke endings as the letters. Uppercase shapes remain simple and open, with smooth joins and minimal sharp corners, reinforcing an easygoing, accessible texture on the page.
