A rounded, monoline sans with an oblique slant and softly tapered terminals. Curves are broad and smooth, with generous rounding at joins and ends that keeps the texture even and non-mechanical. Uppercase forms are simplified and open, while lowercase shapes lean toward humanist construction with single-storey a and g, a curved-shoulder r, and a looping y. Numerals follow the same soft geometry and show clear, open counters for legibility.
Well-suited to branding and packaging that benefit from an approachable voice, as well as posters, headlines, and social media graphics where the slanted, rounded forms add momentum. It can also work for short paragraphs, pull quotes, and UI labels when a friendly, informal tone is desired.
The overall tone is friendly and conversational, with a brisk forward motion from the slant and an easygoing softness from the rounded endings. It reads as contemporary and informal rather than strict or technical, making text feel welcoming and lightly playful.
Likely designed to provide a clean sans foundation with a softer, more personable character—combining rounded geometry with a pronounced oblique stance to create a modern, upbeat reading experience.
Stroke endings appear subtly angled, and the rhythm is slightly irregular in a natural, handwritten-adjacent way while still maintaining consistent weight and spacing. The italic posture is strong enough to add energy in display sizes, but the open apertures and simple shapes help it stay readable in short text.
