A monoline rounded sans with soft, open curves and lightly irregular stroke behavior that reads as hand-drawn rather than mechanically perfect. The letterforms are built from broad, circular bowls and simple stems, with generous sidebearings and open apertures that keep texture light and breathable. Terminals are mostly rounded and unsharpened, and joins favor smooth continuity over strict geometry, producing an easy, informal rhythm in text.
Best suited to display and short text where its airy texture and playful irregularity can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging, social graphics, and casual branding. It also works well for children’s or lifestyle contexts where a friendly, informal voice is desirable.
The overall tone is approachable and cheerful, with a gentle, whimsical character that feels conversational and unpretentious. Its loosened regularity suggests an intentionally human touch, making it feel friendly and modern without becoming overly decorative.
Likely designed to provide a rounded, approachable sans that feels lightly sketched—prioritizing warmth and personality while remaining simple and legible at larger sizes.
Uppercase forms lean toward simplified constructions (single-stroke crossbars and open, arcing shapes), while lowercase maintains a consistent rounded logic and a relaxed baseline feel. Numerals follow the same soft, looped construction, staying clear and cohesive with the alphabet.
