A casual handwritten print with a consistent monoline stroke and a rightward slant. Letterforms are tall and slightly condensed, with rounded terminals, open counters, and gently irregular curves that preserve a natural hand-drawn rhythm. Spacing and widths vary subtly from glyph to glyph, and the baseline feel is relaxed, producing a light, airy texture in text. Uppercase forms are simple and legible, while lowercase shows a compact body with relatively tall ascenders and descenders.
Well-suited for short, expressive copy such as packaging callouts, posters, invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It also works nicely for quotes, captions, and brand accents where an informal handwritten feel is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone feels informal and personable, like quick marker or pen lettering used for notes and captions. Its buoyant slant and soft curves give it an upbeat, friendly voice without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to capture the immediacy of everyday handwriting in an unconnected print style, balancing casual character with straightforward readability. The narrow, slanted forms and monoline construction suggest an intention to stay light on the page while still feeling energetic and human.
Figures follow the same handwritten logic, with simple, open shapes and smooth strokes that keep them readable at display sizes. The font maintains coherence across the set while retaining small inconsistencies typical of natural writing, which adds charm but can create a more textured color in longer passages.
