A casual handwritten print with monoline, softly rounded strokes and a lightly brushy finish. Letterforms are compact and narrow with a bouncy baseline and uneven, natural rhythm; widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the hand-drawn feel. Terminals tend to be tapered or slightly bulbous, and curves are smooth rather than geometric, with simplified joins and open counters that keep text readable at moderate sizes.
Well-suited to friendly branding, packaging, and promotional headlines where an informal hand-lettered texture is desired. It also works for social graphics, greeting cards, invitations, and short product callouts; for long passages, larger sizes and generous spacing will help preserve clarity.
The tone is warm, approachable, and lightly whimsical—more like quick marker lettering than formal penmanship. Its irregularities feel intentional and human, giving headlines and short phrases an easygoing, conversational voice.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-drawn print lettering with consistent stroke weight and a lively, slightly irregular rhythm. The goal appears to be approachable readability while preserving the spontaneity and charm of quick handwritten marks.
Capitals lean toward simple, single-stroke constructions, while lowercase shows more personality in letters like g, y, and z. Numerals match the same loose construction and rounded stroke endings, maintaining a consistent informal texture across text and figures.
