A compact, hand-drawn print face with thick strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms show gentle irregularities in curve tension and stroke endings, creating a lively rhythm without breaking overall consistency. The proportions lean tall and condensed, with simple, open counters and minimal detailing. Numerals match the informal texture, with rounded shapes and slightly varied widths that keep the set feeling human rather than mechanical.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly handmade voice is desired: posters, product packaging, café menus, classroom materials, greeting cards, and social graphics. It reads especially well at display sizes, where the rounded stroke endings and playful irregularities become a feature rather than a distraction.
The font conveys an approachable, upbeat tone—informal and a little quirky, like marker lettering used for notes, labels, or kid-friendly signage. Its bold, soft shapes feel warm and welcoming, prioritizing personality over strict precision.
The design appears intended to mimic confident marker or brush-pen print lettering—clean enough for clear reading, but intentionally imperfect to keep a personal, cheerful character. It aims to deliver bold presence in tight spaces while maintaining a relaxed, human tone.
Spacing and widths vary slightly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the handwritten feel. Uppercase forms are straightforward and legible, while lowercase introduces more bounce and idiosyncratic curves, giving text a conversational cadence in longer passages.
