A clean, rounded sans with smooth monoline strokes and gently tapered terminals. Curves are broadly circular with softened joins, giving bowls and counters an open, airy feel. Proportions run relatively narrow with tall ascenders/descenders and a modest x-height, creating extra vertical breathing room in mixed-case text. Overall spacing and widths vary slightly by character, contributing to an easy, informal rhythm while keeping letterforms clear and uncluttered.
Works well for casual headlines, short paragraphs, and UI or packaging copy where a friendly voice is desired. It suits educational and kids-focused materials, lifestyle branding, invitations, and social graphics, and can also serve as a light, readable companion for captions and callouts when generous line spacing is available.
The face reads warm and personable, with a lighthearted, handwritten-adjacent tone rather than a strictly engineered one. Its soft curves and simple construction make it feel inviting and low-pressure, suitable for friendly messaging and everyday communication.
Designed to deliver a simple, approachable sans that feels human and informal while remaining clear in continuous reading. The rounded geometry and modest x-height suggest an emphasis on charm and softness over strict neutrality.
Capitals stay simple and geometric, while lowercase forms lean on single-storey shapes and open terminals that help keep text legible at display-to-text crossover sizes. Numerals match the same rounded construction and maintain a consistent, uncomplicated presence alongside letters.
