A rounded sans with softly blunted terminals and subtly uneven stroke behavior that gives it a hand-drawn, humanized finish. Curves are generous and open, with circular counters and simplified construction across the alphabet. Proportions are relaxed and slightly variable from glyph to glyph, producing a gentle, informal rhythm; diagonals and joins stay smooth rather than sharp, and overall spacing reads open and breathable in text.
Well-suited to short to medium-length text where an informal, welcoming voice is desired, such as children’s materials, casual editorial callouts, packaging, café or boutique branding, and social media graphics. It also works nicely for headings and subheads when you want friendliness without going fully script or cartoon.
The tone is warm and approachable, with a lighthearted, slightly quirky personality. Its softened corners and mild irregularity keep it from feeling corporate, leaning instead toward friendly everyday communication and kid-adjacent or craft-oriented aesthetics.
Likely designed to deliver a rounded sans silhouette with a hand-touched character—prioritizing warmth, simplicity, and readability while keeping enough irregularity to feel personal and non-mechanical.
Distinctive shapes include a playful lower-case "g" with a looped descender, a simple single-storey "a", and numerals with rounded, slightly wobbly contours. The texture in paragraphs is even enough to stay readable, but the organic inconsistencies remain visible and intentional, especially at larger sizes.
