A lively, hand-drawn print style with a right-leaning stance and compact proportions. Strokes are thick and mostly monoline, but show subtle pressure and roughened, slightly ragged edges that create a dry-brush texture. Letters are tall and narrow with irregular widths and a springy baseline rhythm, mixing softly rounded curves with occasional sharper corners and tapered terminals. Counters are generally open, and the overall construction feels intentionally imperfect, like quick marker or brush lettering refined into a consistent set.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where its personality and texture can carry the message—headlines, posters, labels, packaging accents, and social graphics. It can work for light editorial callouts or branding taglines when a friendly, handcrafted feel is desired, but the narrow proportions and lively rhythm make it less ideal for long-form reading.
The font reads as upbeat and approachable, with a cheeky, handmade energy. Its narrow, animated forms and textured stroke endings give it a crafty, spontaneous tone that feels more personal than polished, without becoming messy.
Designed to capture the immediacy of informal brush/marker lettering in a clean, printable alphabet. The goal appears to be expressive, personable display typography with a consistent lean, compact footprint, and enough texture to keep it feeling hand-made.
Uppercase forms feel slightly more condensed and sign-like, while the lowercase introduces more bounce and individuality (notably in letters with descenders). Numerals match the same casual texture and lean, staying legible while retaining the hand-rendered character.
