A casual, hand-drawn print with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms show gentle wobble and subtle stroke tapering that mimics marker or pen pressure, with an overall loose, organic rhythm. Proportions are compact with narrow bowls and counters, and spacing feels open and airy rather than tightly engineered. Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, simplified construction, while numerals follow the same rounded, slightly uneven hand-rendered logic.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly, hand-lettered voice is desired, such as kids-oriented materials, invitations, labels, and casual retail packaging. It also works effectively for headings, quotes, and social graphics where personality and approachability matter more than strict typographic regularity.
The font conveys an easygoing, personable tone—cheerful without being noisy. Its imperfect stroke edges and lively curves create a warm, human feel that reads as informal and conversational.
Designed to emulate quick, neat hand printing with consistent stroke weight and rounded, simplified shapes. The goal appears to be an approachable everyday handwritten look that stays readable while retaining natural, human variation.
Distinctive features include single-storey lowercase forms, simple geometric curves, and slightly varying baseline behavior that reinforces the handmade character. The figures are friendly and legible, with rounded shapes (notably 0, 8, 9) that match the letter style closely.
