A clean, hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals throughout. Letterforms are tall and condensed, with a gently uneven baseline and small variations in curvature that preserve an authentic marker/pen feel while staying consistent across the set. Counters are open and simple, joins are smooth rather than angular, and the overall rhythm is airy, with generous internal space that keeps text from feeling heavy despite the narrow proportions. Numerals and capitals follow the same lightly irregular, drawn construction, maintaining a cohesive texture in mixed copy.
Well-suited to friendly headlines, short notes, and branded copy where an approachable handwritten tone is desired—such as packaging, café menus, stationery, greeting cards, classroom materials, and craft or DIY labeling. It also works for light display typography in posters and social graphics where a neat, casual voice is more important than strict geometric precision.
The font reads warm and personable, with a lighthearted, informal tone that feels like neat handwriting rather than formal typography. Its narrow, buoyant shapes add a touch of whimsy without becoming chaotic, giving it a cheerful, inviting voice.
Designed to capture the charm of tidy, everyday handwriting in a consistent, font-ready form—balancing legibility with a natural hand-drawn bounce for informal communication and cheerful branding.
The most distinctive traits are its tall condensed silhouette, rounded stroke endings, and subtle handmade inconsistencies in curves and widths that create a lively texture in paragraphs. Curved letters (like C, S, O) stay smooth and open, supporting readability at modest display sizes while still signaling an informal, crafted style.
