Jun is a rounded sans serif type ideal to add a soft touch to the text. It has an approachable design characterized by gentle, rhythmic curves reminiscent of handwriting and the harmonious balance between stroke weights and round terminals. Its wide structure to ensure readability also allows one’s gaze to flow without obstruction. The type is effective in various ways, such as using Jun 101 and 201 for the body text of picture books and magazines, and Jun 34 and 501 for headlines and title logos.
