A condensed sans with rounded terminals and softly irregular curves that create a subtly hand-drawn texture. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness with minimal modulation, while counters are compact and vertically oriented. The uppercase set is tall and narrow with simplified geometry, and the lowercase follows the same condensed rhythm with single-storey forms and compact bowls. Numerals are equally narrow and slightly softened, matching the overall elastic, slightly uneven baseline feel.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short text where personality and space efficiency matter. It works well for playful branding, packaging, children’s or family-focused materials, and attention-grabbing labels or pull quotes, especially at medium to large sizes.
The font reads as lighthearted and approachable, with a casual, slightly retro personality. Its narrow, bouncy silhouettes and rounded endings give it an informal, crafted tone that feels friendly rather than corporate.
Likely designed to deliver a compact, high-impact sans voice with a friendly, hand-touched character. The goal appears to be legibility in display settings while adding warmth and whimsy through rounded terminals, condensed proportions, and gently irregular shapes.
Spacing appears tight and efficient, producing a strong vertical cadence in text. Some letters show intentional asymmetry and gentle wobble in curves and joins, reinforcing a humanized, display-oriented character while keeping overall consistency across the set.
