A slanted, rounded sans with a soft, humanist structure and subtly variable stroke width. Curves are generous and slightly asymmetric, with terminals that taper or soften rather than ending in crisp cuts. The rhythm feels handwritten: stems lean forward, joins are smooth, and counters stay fairly open, helping letters remain clear despite the informal motion. Uppercase forms are simple and rounded, while lowercase shows more characterful shapes and a flowing, slightly bouncy baseline feel in text.
Well suited to branding and packaging that want an approachable, handcrafted feel, as well as posters and headlines where the slant adds motion. It can also work in editorial callouts, pull quotes, and casual signage where a friendly tone and clear letterforms are important.
The overall tone is warm and personable, balancing legibility with an easygoing, handwritten energy. It reads as informal and friendly rather than technical, with enough liveliness to feel expressive without becoming decorative or chaotic.
The design appears intended to provide an informal, handwritten-leaning sans alternative that stays readable in continuous text. Its rounded construction and soft terminals suggest a focus on warmth and approachability, while the consistent slant and moderate modulation add personality and momentum.
Numerals follow the same rounded, slightly brush-influenced logic, with smooth curves and gentle modulation. The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a unified forward momentum that suits short bursts of copy as well as larger text blocks.
