A rounded, monoline sans with a clear rightward slant and gently irregular, hand-drawn rhythm. Strokes keep an even thickness and end in soft, slightly tapered terminals, giving curves a smooth, ink-pen feel rather than mechanical precision. Counters are open and generously rounded, with lively proportions and subtle width variation that makes words feel fluid. Lowercase forms are simple and readable, with single-storey a and g and a compact, looped e, while capitals stay clean and unadorned with softly curved joins.
Well-suited for short to medium text in contexts that benefit from an approachable, personal voice—such as educational worksheets, invitations, lifestyle packaging, café menus, and social media graphics. It also works nicely for display lines and pull quotes where a casual handwritten impression is desired.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like neat marker or felt-tip lettering. Its slight wobble and rounded shapes convey friendliness and ease, suggesting personal notes, classroom materials, and lighthearted branding rather than formal or technical settings.
Designed to deliver a friendly handwritten sans look with dependable readability, blending clean, rounded construction with enough organic variation to feel human. The goal appears to be an informal, upbeat texture that remains consistent across letters, numerals, and continuous text.
The slant and soft terminals help maintain smooth word shapes in running text, while the slightly uneven rhythm adds character without becoming messy. Numerals follow the same rounded, handwritten logic, staying clear and consistent with the letterforms.
