A rounded sans with consistent stroke weight and gently imperfect, hand-drawn geometry. Curves are smooth and circular with open counters, while joins stay simple and clean. Terminals are mostly softly rounded, giving the alphabet a mellow finish rather than sharp cuts. Spacing feels a bit loose and the rhythm is slightly irregular in a natural way, which keeps text light and breathable in longer lines.
Works well for light-hearted branding, packaging, posters, and short headlines where an approachable tone is desired. It also suits educational or kids-oriented materials and casual UI or app messaging, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the rounded details and airy spacing stay crisp.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a playful, human touch. It reads as friendly and unpretentious—more like a neat marker or casual pen note than a rigidly engineered grotesk. The softness of the curves and terminals supports a relaxed, welcoming voice.
The design appears intended to combine simple geometric readability with a deliberately human, slightly imperfect finish. It prioritizes friendliness and clarity over strict uniformity, aiming for a modern, casual voice that stays clean in continuous text.
Uppercase forms lean toward simple, geometric constructions, while the lowercase introduces more personality, especially in rounded letters and single-storey shapes. Numerals follow the same soft, open construction and remain clear at a glance, reinforcing the font’s easygoing, everyday feel.
