A lively, humanist sans with gently tapered strokes and slightly irregular, calligraphic modulation that keeps letterforms feeling hand-drawn without becoming script-like. Curves are open and round, with soft terminals and occasional angled endings that introduce a subtle forward energy while remaining essentially upright. Proportions are moderately wide and airy, with generous internal space and clear differentiation between characters; lowercase forms appear notably organic, giving text a varied, textured rhythm rather than strict geometric repetition.
Well suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and short-to-medium text where a friendly, human touch is desired. It also fits packaging, café/retail branding, and posters that benefit from a casual, approachable voice without looking overly decorative.
The overall tone is warm and personable, with a lightly whimsical, literary feel. Its understated irregularity reads as crafted and informal, making it feel less corporate and more conversational while staying clean enough for general reading.
The design appears intended to blend the clarity of a sans with the warmth of hand-drawn lettering, adding personality through gentle tapering and organic curves while preserving legibility across a full alphanumeric set.
The font’s rhythm comes from small variations in stroke taper and curvature, which are especially apparent in mixed-case settings. Numerals share the same soft, humanist construction, keeping a cohesive, friendly color in running text and headings.
