A compact, hand-drawn print face with thick, rounded strokes and subtly uneven contours that preserve a marker/brush feel. Letterforms are tall and narrow with a lively, slightly inconsistent rhythm, and terminals tend to be blunt or softly tapered rather than sharply cut. Curves are generous and somewhat lumpy in a deliberate way, while counters stay open enough for clarity in short lines. Numerals and capitals follow the same informal construction, with occasional idiosyncrasies that emphasize the handmade character.
Best suited for display uses such as posters, product packaging, menu headings, social graphics, and short, punchy headlines where a casual handwritten voice is desired. It can work for brief subheads or pull quotes, but longer passages may feel visually busy due to its dense, narrow forms and irregular rhythm.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, like quick lettering on packaging, menus, or craft signage. Its narrow, energetic forms read as friendly and a bit mischievous, prioritizing personality over strict typographic regularity.
Designed to capture the immediacy of casual marker lettering in a consistent, font-based system—delivering a personable, hand-rendered look that remains readable while keeping a distinctly informal charm.
Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, contributing to a spontaneous, written-on-the-fly texture. The heaviest areas and stroke joins can create dark spots at small sizes, so it tends to look best when given breathing room.
