A rounded, monoline sans with soft terminals and gently irregular curves that suggest an informal, hand-drawn construction while remaining clean and legible. Bowls and counters are open and generously proportioned, with smooth circular forms in O/Q/0 and relaxed arcs throughout. Stems stay fairly even in thickness, joins are uncomplicated, and overall widths vary slightly by letter, producing a natural, unforced rhythm. The lowercase uses single-storey forms (notably a and g), with simple ascenders/descenders and a calm baseline presence.
Works well for short-to-medium text where an approachable, informal tone is desired—such as UI labels, educational materials, kids-oriented content, packaging, and social or marketing graphics. It can also serve as a friendly display face for headings and pull quotes where warmth and clarity are both important.
The tone is warm and conversational, with a lightly playful character that feels human rather than mechanical. Its rounded geometry and subtle irregularities keep it from feeling corporate, giving text a friendly, everyday voice suited to informal messaging.
The design appears intended to blend the clarity of a simple sans with the charm of a lightly hand-drawn look. It prioritizes friendliness and ease of reading through rounded shapes, open counters, and uncomplicated letter construction.
Capitals read clear and straightforward, while the lowercase adds the most personality through simplified, handwritten-style shapes and soft stroke endings. Numerals follow the same rounded, easygoing logic, maintaining consistency with the letterforms.
