A slim, clean sans with softly rounded terminals and gentle, slightly irregular curves that give it a human, hand-drawn feel while remaining structurally simple. Strokes stay even and unmodulated, with open apertures and uncomplicated construction across both upper- and lowercase. Proportions are compact and vertical, with tall ascenders and descenders that add a light, airy rhythm in running text. The figures are straightforward and readable, matching the same rounded, informal stroke behavior as the letters.
Works well for branding and packaging that benefit from an approachable, informal voice, and for short headlines or pull quotes where its personality can show. It also suits posters, social media graphics, and light editorial display settings where a clean sans is desired but with a warmer, more human touch.
The overall tone is friendly and relaxed, with a subtle whimsy that keeps it from feeling clinical. It reads as approachable and personable, making text feel conversational rather than corporate.
The font appears designed to blend the simplicity of a modern sans with the charm of hand-rendered lettering, prioritizing friendly readability and an easygoing texture in both display and short-form text.
The design favors clarity through open shapes and generous interior space, while small idiosyncrasies in curves and joins add character without becoming decorative. It maintains a consistent texture in paragraphs, with a slightly bouncy cadence driven by narrow forms and long extenders.
