A casual, handwritten print style with a slight rightward slant and a brush-pen feel. Strokes are generally smooth and monolinear with modest contrast and softly rounded terminals, with occasional tapered starts and finishes that suggest quick, confident motion. Proportions are compact and narrow overall, with a bouncy baseline rhythm and small, simple counters; uppercase forms are straightforward and open, while lowercase shows more idiosyncratic shapes and variable widths that reinforce the hand-drawn character. Numerals follow the same informal construction with rounded, slightly uneven curves.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display text where an informal, personal voice is desired—headlines, packaging callouts, posters, cards, and social graphics. It can also work for brief UI labels or captions when a friendly, handmade tone is more important than strict uniformity.
The tone is approachable and playful, like neat marker lettering in a notebook or on a handmade sign. Its gentle irregularities and lively rhythm read as personal and warm rather than formal or technical.
Likely designed to emulate quick brush or marker printing with a clean, readable structure, adding just enough variation and slant to feel authentically handwritten while remaining usable in common display settings.
Texture stays consistent across the alphabet, balancing legibility with visible human variation. The slant and narrow set help it pack words tightly, while the rounded forms keep it soft and non-aggressive in longer lines.
