A casual sans with a hand-drawn construction and softly rounded terminals. Strokes show gentle, noticeable modulation, with slight wobble and tapering that keeps the texture lively rather than rigid. Proportions are compact with a relatively low lowercase height, narrow overall letterforms, and irregular glyph widths that create an animated rhythm. Curves are generous and slightly asymmetrical, and verticals often feel subtly bowed, giving the alphabet a natural, marker-like presence.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where personality is a priority: children’s materials, friendly packaging, casual posters, café or boutique branding, and social graphics. It can work for subheads and short paragraphs at comfortable sizes, where the lively stroke modulation and irregular widths remain clear.
The font reads warm and approachable, with a playful, homemade tone. Its irregularities feel intentional and personable, suggesting spontaneity and a light, conversational voice rather than formality or precision.
The design appears intended to capture an approachable, hand-lettered feel in a clean sans framework, combining simple geometric readability with human variation for charm and warmth.
Uppercase forms are simplified and rounded, while lowercase retains distinctive, slightly quirky shapes that enhance character in running text. Numerals follow the same informal logic with smooth curves and mild stroke variation, staying legible while maintaining the hand-rendered flavor.
