A tall, slender sans with consistent stroke weight and softly rounded terminals. Curves are built from clean, elongated ovals, giving counters generous openness despite the narrow set. Joins are simple and unembellished, with a slightly humanist, hand-drawn steadiness rather than rigid geometric precision. Spacing is even and the overall rhythm feels light and vertical, with clear distinction between straight stems and smooth, continuous bowls.
Works well for concise headlines, labels, and short UI strings where vertical economy is helpful and a friendly tone is desired. It can also suit packaging, event materials, and editorial sidebars where an informal, clean sans texture is preferred; for longer paragraphs, it will benefit from comfortable line spacing due to its tall proportions.
The tone is approachable and relaxed, with a gentle, slightly whimsical character that reads as informal rather than corporate. Its narrow, airy forms feel tidy and understated, making it suitable for friendly messaging and modern, minimal presentation where a soft voice is desired.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, modern sans voice with a subtle hand-drawn warmth, balancing simplicity and personality while staying highly legible in narrow settings.
The uppercase shows prominent verticality (notably in letters like A, M, N, and H), while round letters such as O, Q, and C stay open and neatly drawn. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded logic, keeping a consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
