A lightly built, monoline sans with an intentionally hand-drawn feel. Strokes are smooth and slightly uneven in curvature, with soft, tapered terminals that avoid crisp geometric endings. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, creating an organic rhythm: rounds are generous and open, verticals are subtly wavy, and diagonals feel lively rather than strictly engineered. The lowercase is simple and readable with single-storey forms (notably for a and g), while the numerals follow the same informal construction with rounded bowls and relaxed spacing.
Best suited to short-to-medium settings where personality is an asset: children’s and education-facing headlines, packaging and labels, event posters, greeting cards, and casual branding. It can also work for pull quotes or UI accents where a friendly, human tone is desired, rather than dense body copy.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, leaning toward informal and whimsical rather than technical or corporate. Its gentle irregularities suggest a human touch, giving text a personable, conversational character.
The font appears designed to capture the charm of quick marker or pen lettering while staying legible and broadly usable as a sans. Its goal is to communicate friendliness and spontaneity through softened terminals, open shapes, and subtly irregular rhythm.
The design maintains a consistent stroke voice across caps, lowercase, and figures, but allows small variations in width and alignment that read as deliberate rather than accidental. In longer text, the slightly uneven baseline and varied letter widths contribute to a casual, handmade texture.
