A rounded, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and soft, tapered terminals that suggest a hand-drawn marker or brush-pen influence. Curves are generously inflated and corners are eased, keeping the overall texture smooth and continuous. Proportions are compact in width with lively, slightly variable letter shapes, and the lowercase shows a tall, open construction that keeps counters clear in running text. Numerals follow the same casual rhythm with rounded forms and minimal stroke modulation.
Well-suited to logos, packaging, posters, and social graphics where a personable, hand-lettered voice is desired. It also fits kids’ or lifestyle messaging, invitations, and pull quotes, and can work for short passages when a casual tone is more important than strict typographic neutrality.
The tone is friendly and conversational, with an easygoing, personal feel that reads like neat handwriting rather than a rigid geometric italic. Its soft shapes and steady slant give it a warm, upbeat character suited to light, informal communication.
Designed to blend the clarity of a rounded sans with the warmth of handwriting, creating an italicized, informal display text style that stays readable while feeling expressive and friendly.
The rhythm is bouncy and human, with subtle irregularity that adds charm without becoming messy. Open apertures and rounded joins help maintain legibility, while the italic stance provides momentum for short phrases and headlines.
