A chunky, hand-drawn print face with rounded terminals and a brush-marker feel. Strokes stay broadly even with soft swelling and tapering at curves, and the glyphs lean slightly, creating a lively forward motion. Proportions are generously open and wide, with simple, single-story forms and slightly irregular contours that keep the texture human rather than mechanical. Counters are roomy and the joins are smooth, giving the alphabet a comfortable, approachable rhythm in text.
Works best for short-to-medium display copy where personality matters: posters, packaging, stickers, social graphics, storefront signage, and casual editorial headlines. It can also support playful UI labels or educational/kids materials, especially at sizes where the brushy edges and open counters have room to breathe.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, with a casual handwritten warmth that reads as friendly and a little cheeky. The slight slant and rounded shapes add energy without becoming frantic, making it feel conversational and welcoming.
The design appears intended to mimic quick marker lettering—legible, bold, and inviting—while preserving the small irregularities that signal “made by hand.” It prioritizes approachability and energy over strict geometric consistency, aiming for a relaxed, contemporary handwritten voice.
Capitals are simplified and bold in silhouette, while lowercase maintains the same marker-drawn character with clear, open bowls and minimal detailing. Numerals share the same soft, hand-rendered construction, keeping a consistent texture across mixed content.
