A clean sans with an intentionally irregular, hand-drawn feel. Strokes are mostly monoline with gentle tapering in places, and terminals are soft and slightly blunted rather than sharply cut. Curves are open and rounded, while straight strokes show subtle wobble and unevenness that creates a lively rhythm. Proportions are practical and readable, with simple, single-storey lowercase forms and modestly wide counters; the numerals follow the same casual, slightly offbeat construction.
Works well where a personable sans is needed: packaging, café/retail branding, event posters, and social content. The approachable shapes also suit children’s or educational materials and short headlines or callouts where the hand-drawn flavor can be appreciated.
The overall tone is friendly and conversational, like neat marker lettering rather than rigid geometric type. Its small irregularities add warmth and personality, giving it a playful, human presence without becoming chaotic or overly decorative.
Likely designed to provide a readable sans foundation with added human texture, combining simple constructions with subtle irregularities to feel casual and welcoming in display and short-text settings.
The capitals keep straightforward silhouettes but include mild asymmetries and softened joins that prevent a purely technical look. Curved letters (C, G, S, O) emphasize roundness, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) retain a hand-made tilt and energy that contributes to the font’s informal character.
