A monoline sans with generously rounded construction and softly squared terminals, giving each letter a smooth, drawn-by-hand regularity. Curves are broad and open, counters are roomy, and joins are gently eased rather than sharply mechanical. Proportions feel expanded horizontally, with simple, single-storey lowercase forms and a clean, uncluttered skeleton that keeps the texture light and spacious in text. Numerals follow the same rounded logic, with wide bowls and minimal detailing.
Well suited to branding and packaging where a friendly, modern voice is needed, as well as headlines and short blocks of display text that benefit from open spacing and rounded forms. It can also work effectively for posters, social graphics, and children’s or lifestyle-oriented media where an informal, welcoming tone is desirable.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a light, easygoing rhythm that reads as approachable rather than technical. Its rounded geometry and simplified forms create a playful, contemporary feel suited to cheerful messaging and relaxed branding.
The letterforms appear designed to combine clean sans simplicity with a casual, hand-drawn warmth. The emphasis on rounded geometry, open counters, and simplified construction suggests an intention to stay highly approachable and visually light while remaining clear in common display sizes.
The design leans on consistent stroke behavior and rounded corners to maintain cohesion across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. Distinctive, open shapes (notably in letters with bowls and arcs) help prevent the softness from turning blurry, while the wide stance keeps lines from feeling dense.
