A clean sans with softly rounded geometry and open, circular counters. Strokes are consistently thin with smooth joins and subtly eased terminals, creating an even, delicate rhythm across text. Proportions lean broad and relaxed, and the letterforms maintain a simple, uncluttered structure that emphasizes clarity over sharp precision.
Well suited to branding that wants a friendly, contemporary tone, as well as posters, packaging, and UI text where a light, gentle voice is desirable. It can work for short editorial passages and educational or lifestyle materials, and it’s particularly effective in larger sizes where the thin strokes and rounded forms read cleanly.
This typeface feels friendly and approachable, with a light, airy presence that reads as calm and informal. The rounded construction and gentle, almost hand-drawn softness give it a cheerful, personable tone without becoming overtly playful.
The design appears aimed at providing a simple, approachable sans for everyday use, prioritizing a soft, non-technical feel. Its rounded shapes and restrained detailing suggest an intention to stay neutral and readable while adding a subtle warmth.
Numerals and capitals follow the same rounded, minimal logic as the lowercase, producing a cohesive texture in mixed-case settings. The overall spacing and shapes create a smooth, even color in paragraphs, with a slightly informal character that keeps it from feeling overly corporate.
