A heavy, rounded handwritten print with soft terminals and an inked, slightly brushy edge. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, forming compact, bulbous counters and simplified joins. Proportions feel gently irregular: widths vary by letter and curves are slightly asymmetric, creating a lively rhythm without breaking overall consistency. Uppercase forms are simple and approachable, while lowercase features single-storey a and g and a looped, descending y; numerals are equally rounded and sturdy with open, friendly shapes.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where a warm, informal voice is wanted—such as packaging, café menus, playful posters, classroom materials, kids-focused projects, stickers, and social graphics. It can also work for logo wordmarks when a friendly, handmade feel is the goal, though the dense stroke weight may overwhelm at very small sizes.
The tone is cheerful and approachable, with a childlike, handcrafted warmth. Its buoyant shapes and soft corners read as friendly and informal, suggesting spontaneity and human touch rather than precision or formality.
Designed to capture the look of thick marker or brush-pen printing in a clean, repeatable font: bold presence, rounded friendliness, and just enough irregularity to feel human. The emphasis appears to be on personality and approachability over geometric precision.
The heavy strokes and tight counters give it a strong color on the page, and the slightly uneven geometry adds personality in display settings. Letterforms stay unconnected, keeping words clear while still feeling hand-drawn.
