A slanted, monoline sans with softly rounded terminals and gently swelling curves that keep the stroke color even. The shapes feel humanist and slightly calligraphic, with occasional subtle entry/exit flicks and mild bracketing where strokes join. Curves are broad and open, counters stay generous, and the overall rhythm is lively rather than rigidly geometric, giving words a smooth, flowing texture across a line of text.
It works well for branding and packaging that benefits from a personable tone, as well as posters and headlines where a smooth slant can add energy. In editorial or short-form text, it can provide a relaxed, human voice while remaining clear enough for comfortable reading at moderate sizes.
The font reads as approachable and informal, with a warm, slightly retro personality. Its slanted, handwritten-leaning construction adds momentum and friendliness without becoming decorative or theatrical, making it feel conversational and easygoing.
The design appears intended to blend the clarity of a simple sans with the warmth and motion of informal handwriting. By keeping strokes even and forms open while introducing soft terminals and a steady slant, it aims to stay readable yet distinctly personable.
Capitals maintain clean, rounded silhouettes, while lowercase forms lean more cursive in their joins and terminals, creating a noticeable—but cohesive—contrast between headline caps and running text. Numerals follow the same soft, rounded logic and sit comfortably alongside letters, reinforcing a consistent, readable color.
