A lively, sans-based design with clear stroke modulation and gently flared, wedge-like terminals that create an almost brush-cut finish. Curves are roomy and circular (notably in O/C/G), while straight strokes often taper into pointed ends, giving the alphabet a cut-paper or pen-nib rhythm. The lowercase shows compact proportions and a short x-height relative to the capitals, with single-storey forms and rounded bowls that keep the texture informal. Overall spacing reads open and readable, with distinctive, slightly uneven-looking stroke energy that remains consistent across letters and numerals.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where its tapered terminals and animated contrast can be appreciated. It can work for short editorial callouts or subheads, but the strong personality and compact lowercase proportions are most effective at moderate to large sizes.
The font conveys a playful, slightly nostalgic tone—more storybook and boutique than corporate. Its tapered terminals and lively contrast add personality and motion, suggesting hand-drawn confidence without becoming fully script-like.
Likely intended to blend the cleanliness of a sans structure with calligraphic modulation, producing a friendly display face that feels crafted and expressive while remaining broadly legible.
Several glyphs lean on stylized geometry: diagonals often finish in sharp wedges, and counters stay generous, helping the dark shapes avoid feeling heavy. Numerals follow the same cut-terminal logic, giving headlines a cohesive, characterful cadence.
