A hand-drawn, marker-like print with rounded forms, irregular stroke edges, and slight wobble throughout. Strokes show visible texture and occasional tapering, creating a natural, written rhythm rather than strict geometric construction. Counters are generally open and slightly uneven, with simplified terminals and soft corners. Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive handmade logic, with modest baseline bounce and subtly inconsistent widths that reinforce an authentic, sketched feel.
Works well for short headlines, posters, labels, and packaging where an informal, hand-made voice is desired. It also suits social media graphics, invitations, classroom materials, and youth-oriented branding where warmth and personality matter more than strict typographic precision.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, reading like quick notes or hand-lettered signage. Its imperfect edges and lively rhythm give it a personable, spontaneous character that feels conversational rather than formal.
Designed to emulate quick, confident hand lettering with a marker or brush pen, prioritizing personality and immediacy over uniformity. The consistent informality and textured stroke finish suggest an intention to add human warmth and a casual, friendly emphasis in display settings.
The numerals and capitals are bold in presence with simple silhouettes, while many lowercase forms stay compact and easygoing. The textured edges and slight ink/marker variation become more apparent at larger sizes, adding character; at very small sizes, that texture may visually darken or soften fine details.
