A casual handwritten print with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms show a gentle rightward slant and a lively, uneven rhythm, with subtle variations in stroke curvature and width that preserve a drawn-by-hand feel. Proportions are compact and tall, with small counters and a relatively short lowercase body, while ascenders and capitals add height and emphasis. Numerals and punctuation match the same loose, slightly irregular construction, keeping texture consistent across text.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where personality matters: headlines, posters, packaging callouts, greeting cards, and social content. It can also work for quotes, classroom materials, and casual branding accents when a human, informal tone is desired.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a playful, conversational voice. Its slightly bouncy shapes and informal rhythm feel personal and unpretentious, like quick marker or pen lettering used for notes and friendly headings.
The font appears designed to capture the immediacy of everyday handwriting in a clean, readable print form. Its consistent monoline construction and controlled irregularities aim to balance charm and legibility for expressive display use.
The design favors clarity over polish, with intentionally imperfect curves and occasional asymmetry that read as authentic handwriting. Spacing appears comfortably open for a handwritten style, helping words remain legible while maintaining an energetic, hand-drawn texture.
