A lively handwritten print with brush-like strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms show gentle stroke modulation and visible hand pressure, with slightly uneven curves and occasional wobble that reinforces an organic rhythm. Proportions lean compact with a relatively low lowercase body, and spacing feels natural rather than mechanically uniform, helping words form a loose, bouncy texture. Numerals and capitals follow the same marker/brush logic, maintaining consistent stroke behavior across the set.
Works best where a friendly handmade voice is desirable—packaging labels, café or boutique signage, posters, and social media graphics. It also suits invitations, greeting cards, and short editorial callouts where personality matters more than strict typographic regularity.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with an easygoing, human presence that reads as personal and spontaneous. Its energetic curves and slightly quirky details give it a playful, crafty character rather than a formal or corporate one.
Designed to emulate quick, confident hand lettering with a brush or marker, prioritizing charm and human rhythm over geometric precision. The intent appears to be an approachable display handwriting that stays legible while retaining visible hand-drawn character.
Caps are expressive and gestural without becoming overly decorative, while lowercase forms remain clear enough for short bursts of text. The shapes avoid sharp corners in favor of rounded joins and tapered endings, which helps keep the texture soft even at larger sizes.
