A rounded, monolinear sans with subtly irregular stroke edges that read like inked or stamped letterforms rather than fully geometric outlines. Curves are generous and slightly uneven, and terminals tend to be softly blunted, giving the set a natural, hand-rendered texture. Proportions are straightforward and readable, with open counters and a steady baseline rhythm, while small variations in stroke width and curve tension keep the texture lively in text.
Well-suited for packaging, labels, and café or small-business branding where a handmade feel is desirable. It also works for posters, book covers, and editorial pull quotes that need an informal, friendly sans with visible texture, and for short-to-medium text where warmth matters more than pristine neutrality.
The overall tone feels approachable and informal, with a warm, human presence that suggests analog production (marker, pen, or rubber stamp). It carries a modest, bookish charm—less polished than a corporate sans, more personable and craft-oriented.
Likely designed to capture the familiarity of hand-drawn or stamped lettering while maintaining the clarity and spacing discipline of a practical sans. The goal appears to be an everyday, readable voice with intentional surface texture and slight irregularities to avoid a sterile look.
At display sizes the edge texture and gentle wobble become a defining feature; in longer passages it behaves like a workmanlike text face but with an intentionally imperfect finish. Numerals and capitals share the same rounded, slightly roughened construction, keeping a consistent voice across the set.
