A relaxed, hand-drawn print with rounded terminals and softly irregular contours that mimic marker or felt-tip lettering. Strokes stay fairly even in thickness, with gentle swelling at curves and occasional wobble that keeps the texture human. Proportions are compact and slightly bouncy, with a relatively small x-height and loose, uneven rhythm that varies subtly from glyph to glyph. Counters are open and simple, and joins are minimal, favoring clear, unconnected letterforms over script-like linking.
Best suited to short to medium bursts of text where personality is the priority: children’s and educational materials, playful branding, packaging, posters, and social media graphics. It can work for display-sized captions and headings, while longer body copy may benefit from generous size and leading to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is cheerful and informal, projecting a friendly, kidlit-adjacent personality. Its imperfect, doodled finish feels warm and personal rather than polished, making it read as conversational and lighthearted.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident handwriting in an unconnected print style—prioritizing warmth, approachability, and a lively, hand-made rhythm over strict geometric consistency.
Uppercase forms are bold and simplified with rounded shoulders, while lowercase maintains the same drawn character and buoyant baseline. Numerals follow the same soft, hand-rendered logic, with slightly asymmetric curves that reinforce the handmade feel.
