A lively, hand-rendered roman with softly rounded forms and visibly irregular outlines. Strokes show subtle wobble and uneven inking, giving counters and terminals a worn, printed feel rather than crisp geometry. Proportions are compact in the caps and open in the lowercase, with straightforward, readable construction and gently varied character widths that create an informal rhythm in text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display copy where texture and personality are desirable—posters, book covers, labels, café menus, and playful brand accents. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers where a handmade tone is needed without sacrificing basic legibility.
The overall tone feels casual and human, like lettering stamped, brushed, or written quickly with a broad marker. Its small imperfections read as friendly and approachable, with a slightly vintage, crafty flavor that keeps it from feeling corporate or polished.
Designed to mimic imperfect, analog lettering with a controlled roughness—prioritizing warmth, character, and a tactile presence over pristine uniformity.
Texture is consistent across letters and figures, with minor edge chatter and occasional asymmetry that becomes more noticeable at larger sizes. Numerals and punctuation share the same irregular finish, supporting cohesive display settings.
