A heavily rounded sans with smooth, monoline strokes and generously curved terminals throughout. Counters are open and circular, with broad, stable proportions and an overall “soft-cornered” geometry that reads cleanly at display sizes. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g) and simplified joins, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) keep the same thick, cushioned stroke feel. Numerals are large and rounded, with compact interior counters and consistent stroke weight that maintains a uniform, solid texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and short statements where the rounded weight can act as a graphic element. It fits playful branding, kid-oriented communication, casual retail, and social media graphics; for long-form text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes with ample leading.
The tone is warm and informal, prioritizing friendliness over precision. Its pillowy curves and simplified shapes give it a cheerful, kid-friendly personality that still feels tidy and contemporary.
Designed to deliver a soft, welcoming sans that remains highly legible while projecting a fun, modern character. The consistent rounding and simplified letterforms suggest an emphasis on versatility for bold display messaging and approachable brand voice.
Spacing appears on the roomy side, helping the dense strokes avoid clogging in short headlines. The rounded apertures and short cross strokes create a slightly bubbly rhythm that can feel energetic in mixed-case settings.
