A lively, hand-drawn print face with a rightward slant and softly rounded forms. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear, with slight wobble and swelling that suggests a marker or brush pen. Corners are eased rather than sharp, counters stay open, and proportions vary from glyph to glyph, creating a bouncy rhythm and uneven baseline that feels intentionally informal. Spacing is loose and airy in text, with irregular widths and gentle asymmetry throughout.
Works best for short to medium-length display settings where personality matters: posters, packaging, stickers, greeting cards, classroom materials, and social graphics. It can also support headings or pull quotes in casual editorial layouts, especially when paired with a more neutral text face for body copy.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a playful, slightly messy charm that reads as handmade rather than mechanical. It conveys a youthful, crafty energy—more doodled note than formal signage—making text feel personal and conversational.
Likely designed to emulate quick, confident hand lettering with a marker-like stroke—prioritizing friendliness and visual spontaneity over strict consistency. The irregular widths, rounded shapes, and lively slant aim to keep words feeling human and energetic at a glance.
Capital shapes are simple and bold with rounded terminals, while lowercase letters lean more fluid and gestural, reinforcing the handwritten character. Numerals are chunky and legible, matching the same soft, blobby stroke endings and informal construction.
