A monospaced, hand-drawn print style with uneven stroke edges and slightly wobbly verticals that create an intentionally imperfect rhythm. Forms are mostly open and simply constructed, with soft corners and occasional bulb-like terminals that mimic marker or brush pressure. Counters and bowls vary subtly from glyph to glyph, and horizontal strokes often show mild sag or taper, giving the set a lively, sketched consistency rather than strict geometry.
This font works well where a handmade, informal voice is desired but consistent character widths are helpful—such as zines, indie posters, playful packaging, or display lines in book covers. It can also serve for short captions or UI labels when you want a crafted, analog feel without connected script behavior.
The overall tone feels like a quirky typewriter interpreted by hand—casual, a bit mischievous, and deliberately unpolished. Its inky irregularities add personality and a human presence, leaning toward zines, notes, and crafted ephemera rather than formal documentation.
The design appears intended to combine the predictability of monospaced spacing with the expressiveness of hand lettering. Its purpose is to add character and texture to text while staying legible and evenly timed, echoing typewriter structure through a drawn, imperfect execution.
Spacing is mechanically even due to the monospaced fit, but the glyph drawings themselves shift slightly within their boxes, producing a charming, jittery texture in paragraphs. Numerals share the same hand-rendered bounce, with rounded shapes and uneven weight distribution that keeps them visually integrated with the letters.
