A rounded, monoline sans with softly tapered strokes and consistently curved terminals. The forms lean toward a hand-drawn construction: straight stems are slightly organic, curves are generously rounded, and joins are smooth rather than crisp. Proportions are compact with open apertures and roomy counters, keeping letters readable while retaining an informal rhythm. Uppercase shapes are simple and clean, while the lowercase introduces more personality through single-storey forms and gentle asymmetries.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly voice is important, such as children’s materials, casual packaging, posters, and social graphics. It also works nicely for headings and callouts in apps or websites that want a welcoming, human feel rather than a strict utilitarian tone.
The overall tone feels warm and informal, with a lightly whimsical, note-taking character. Its rounded endings and easy rhythm read as friendly and non-authoritarian, making it feel conversational rather than corporate.
Likely intended as a legible, rounded sans that balances clarity with a hand-made warmth. The design prioritizes smooth curves, open shapes, and an easy, informal rhythm to communicate approachability across display and general-purpose settings.
Stroke endings tend to be rounded and sometimes subtly tapered, which gives letters a marker-pen or drawn-with-a-stylus impression. Numerals follow the same soft geometry and remain clear at a glance, supporting straightforward UI-style or editorial use where a personable voice is desired.
