A condensed, rounded sans with monoline strokes and softly bulbed terminals. Curves are generously radiused and joins stay smooth, giving counters an oval, slightly vertical feel. Proportions are tall and narrow with a lively, uneven rhythm that suggests hand-drawn construction while maintaining consistent stroke weight and clear forms across letters and numerals.
Works best for short to medium text where personality is welcome: headlines, posters, labels, and brand marks that need an approachable, handcrafted feel. The condensed footprint also suits tight spaces such as menu headings, social graphics, and packaging callouts where you want warmth without taking up width.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a gently quirky, informal voice. Its narrow, springy shapes and rounded endings read as lighthearted and human, leaning toward a retro-casual sign or children’s-book friendliness rather than strict neutrality.
Likely designed to provide a friendly, compact sans that feels hand-made without sacrificing legibility. The consistent monoline stroke and rounded terminals point to an intention of softening the typographic voice and adding charm for display-forward applications.
Caps are simple and open with rounded shoulders (notably in C/G/S), while lowercase forms keep a compact, tidy presence with friendly dots and soft hooks. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded logic, with clear differentiation and a slightly playful stance that helps the set feel cohesive in running text.
