A rounded, high-contrast sans with softly swelling strokes and gently tapered terminals that suggest a pen-driven construction. Curves are generous and slightly asymmetrical, with open counters and a buoyant baseline rhythm. Many joins and endings feel subtly brushed rather than mechanically cut, giving letters a hand-warmed texture while staying clean and legible. Capitals are broad and open, lowercase forms are simple and smooth, and numerals follow the same rounded, slightly calligraphic logic.
Best suited for headlines, branding, and packaging where a friendly, characterful sans is desired. It also works well for editorial pull quotes and short paragraphs at larger sizes, where the lively stroke modulation and rounded forms can be appreciated without feeling busy.
The overall tone is approachable and lightly whimsical, with a nostalgic, handmade flavor. It reads as relaxed and personable rather than technical, bringing a friendly voice to short headlines and expressive text.
The design appears intended to combine the straightforward readability of a sans with the charm of hand-drawn, pen-influenced shapes. Its proportions and soft terminals aim to deliver an inviting, informal personality while keeping letterforms consistent enough for practical display typography.
Contrast is most noticeable in curved letters, where strokes thicken through the bowls and thin at exits, creating a lively sparkle in words. The wide set and rounded terminals help maintain clarity at display sizes while giving lines of text an easy, airy feel.
