A slanted, rounded sans with thick, even strokes and generously curved terminals. The letterforms lean consistently, with a smooth, brush-like rhythm and softly swollen joins that keep counters open and legible. Proportions feel slightly elastic across the alphabet—some glyphs run wider (notably rounded forms like O/Q) while others stay compact—creating a buoyant texture. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, a simple, hooked f, and a tall, narrow t with a short crossbar, reinforcing the informal, handwritten construction while remaining clean and cohesive.
Well-suited for branding and packaging that benefit from a friendly, contemporary voice, as well as posters, headlines, and short promotional copy. It can also work in social media graphics or UI accents where a warm, informal emphasis is desired, especially at medium to large sizes where the rounded details read clearly.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, with a breezy, conversational feel. Its rounded shapes and forward slant suggest warmth and motion, reading as friendly rather than formal. The texture feels energetic and modern, like a casual marker note refined into a consistent typeface.
The design appears intended to combine the ease and warmth of a casual handwritten italic with the clarity of a rounded sans. It prioritizes smooth curves, sturdy strokes, and approachable letterforms to deliver an energetic, modern display text style without feeling overly decorative.
Numerals echo the same soft, rounded construction, with a closed, heavy 8 and a curved 2 and 3 that maintain the font’s smooth flow. The uppercase set stays simple and uncluttered, avoiding sharp corners; the Q’s tail is subtle and integrated. Spacing appears comfortable in the sample text, supporting readable word shapes even at larger, display-like sizes.
