A tall, tightly set sans with a consistent stroke and softly rounded terminals throughout. The forms lean on simple geometric construction but keep an irregular, hand-drawn rhythm: curves are slightly uneven, joins are gentle, and counters stay open for clarity. Proportions are condensed with long ascenders and descenders, and the overall spacing feels light, giving lines of text an airy, vertical texture.
It performs best in headlines, short blurbs, and prominent UI or packaging text where its narrow width helps fit more characters without feeling dense. The soft terminals and lively rhythm make it a strong choice for playful branding, posters, and family- or youth-oriented communication, while longer paragraphs may benefit from generous leading.
The font reads as warm and easygoing, with a subtle cartoon-like bounce that keeps it from feeling corporate or strict. Its narrow, rounded shapes create a friendly tone suited to informal messaging and upbeat display use.
The design appears intended to offer a compact, space-saving sans that stays friendly and characterful rather than purely utilitarian. Rounded endings and a slightly hand-rendered cadence suggest an emphasis on approachability and charm in display settings.
Uppercase letters are slim and columnar, while lowercase adds extra personality through varied curve tension and lively tails and loops. Numerals follow the same rounded, narrow logic, maintaining a cohesive texture alongside text.
