A rounded, soft-edged sans with gently tapered strokes and subtly flared terminals that keep the texture lively without reading as formal. Curves are smooth and circular, counters are open, and joins stay clean, giving the letters an easy rhythm in both capitals and lowercase. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g”, simple dot forms, and broadly drawn bowls; overall spacing feels even and comfortable, with numerals that match the same rounded, slightly calligraphic stroke behavior.
Well suited to branding systems that need warmth, packaging and labels, and editorial display or subheads where a friendly voice is desired. It can also work for UI and short-form text when a softer, more personable sans is preferred over a strictly neutral one.
The tone is warm and personable, with a hand-touched ease that avoids stiffness while still staying tidy and readable. It suggests contemporary, informal communication—friendly rather than corporate, and more conversational than technical.
The design appears intended to blend clean sans structure with softened, humanist detailing—creating a versatile everyday face that feels approachable and distinctive without relying on overt ornament.
Capitals have straightforward geometry with softened corners, while diagonal-heavy letters (like V, W, X, Y) show gentle stroke modulation that adds character. The sample text demonstrates clear word shapes and an unforced flow at paragraph size, with punctuation and curves maintaining the same rounded, cohesive feel.
