A condensed, monoline sans with softly rounded stroke endings and gently irregular, hand-drawn geometry. Curves are narrow and ovalized, with tall ascenders and compact counters that keep the overall texture light and airy. The rhythm is slightly uneven in a deliberate way—some bowls and joins feel subtly asymmetric—while remaining consistent enough for continuous text. Numerals and capitals maintain the same slim, rounded construction, giving the set a cohesive, streamlined silhouette.
Works well for short to medium-length copy where a friendly, informal tone is desired—packaging, posters, social graphics, and playful brand headlines. It also suits labels, invitations, and craft-oriented projects where a hand-made feel is an asset. For longer text, using comfortable sizes and spacing will help preserve readability.
The face reads as approachable and upbeat, with a whimsical, human touch rather than a strict geometric tone. Its narrow proportions and rounded terminals create a light, cheerful voice that feels conversational and a bit quirky, suitable for designs that want warmth without heavy decoration.
Designed to blend a clean sans foundation with a hand-drawn, rounded finish, emphasizing warmth and personality in a compact, space-saving width. The intent appears to be a simple, modern display voice that stays approachable and casual while remaining versatile for everyday graphic applications.
At larger sizes the rounded terminals and slight irregularities become a defining character feature; at smaller sizes the condensed forms and tight counters may feel more delicate, so generous tracking and line spacing can help maintain clarity. The overall impression is clean and simple, but intentionally not rigidly mechanical.
