A rounded sans with softened terminals and gently irregular, hand-drawn-like curves. Strokes are smooth and fairly even, with wide bowls and open counters that keep shapes legible. The lowercase shows a simple, single-storey construction for a and g, and the overall rhythm has a slightly bouncy baseline feel due to subtle stroke curvature and varied letter widths. Figures are straightforward and rounded, matching the letterforms’ soft geometry.
It works well for short-to-medium text where friendliness is important: packaging, café menus, event posters, playful branding, and children’s or educational materials. The open counters and rounded construction help it stay readable at moderate sizes, while its distinctive rhythm adds character to headings and display lines.
The tone is warm and personable, leaning toward playful rather than technical. Its rounded shapes and relaxed rhythm suggest an informal voice that feels welcoming and conversational, suitable for lighthearted or family-friendly messaging.
The design appears aimed at delivering a clean sans structure with a more human, approachable personality. By combining simple geometric cores with softened terminals and a slightly bouncy texture, it’s intended to feel modern and usable while avoiding a sterile, purely technical look.
Uppercase forms read cleanly with broad, simple silhouettes, while lowercase characters add more personality through curved joins and soft, slightly tapered ends. The italic-like feel comes from curved strokes rather than a true slant, so it remains steady while still feeling lively in text.
