A light, monoline sans with gently rounded construction and slightly irregular, humanized curves. Strokes keep an even thickness, while terminals often end in soft, rounded caps that give the letters a drawn, informal feel. The forms are narrow and tall, with open apertures and clean, uncluttered counters; round letters (like O and 0) read as vertically stretched ovals. Descenders are noticeably long (notably in g, j, p, q, y), contributing to a buoyant vertical rhythm in text.
Best suited to display sizes where its tall, airy rhythm and rounded personality can be appreciated—such as posters, packaging, storefront signage, and brand headlines. It can also work for short UI labels or captions when you want a friendly tone, but the narrow proportions and long descenders make it most effective in short-to-medium text rather than dense paragraphs.
The overall tone is friendly and slightly quirky, balancing clean simplicity with a hand-touched warmth. Its tall proportions and rounded finishing create a lighthearted, retro-leaning voice that feels approachable rather than strict or technical.
Likely designed to provide a clean sans framework with a casual, hand-drawn softness—prioritizing approachability, vertical elegance, and easy readability through open shapes and simplified geometry.
Spacing in the samples looks comfortably open, helping the narrow letterforms stay readable. Numerals follow the same tall, rounded logic, and the set maintains consistent stroke economy with minimal contrast or decorative detail.
