A hand-drawn, calligraphic serif with rounded terminals and subtly tapered strokes that mimic a broad marker or brush. Letterforms are upright but lively, with gently uneven curves, irregular stroke endings, and a slightly bouncy baseline rhythm. Caps are simple and open, while lowercase forms stay compact with soft shoulders and occasional asymmetry; counters remain generous for readability. Numerals follow the same organic logic, with smooth, slightly variable shapes and a consistent, crafted feel.
This font suits headings, short passages, and branded copy where a personable, handmade voice is desired—such as children’s publishing, boutique packaging, café menus, event posters, and greeting cards. It can also work for pull quotes and display text where warmth and informality are more important than strict typographic uniformity.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, combining a neat, storybook charm with a touch of whimsy. Its irregularities read as intentional and human, giving text an expressive, conversational character rather than a polished corporate one.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly, hand-lettered look with gentle calligraphic influence—prioritizing charm, legibility, and an artisanal feel over geometric precision.
Spacing appears moderately loose, helping the rounded shapes breathe in longer lines. The design maintains clear silhouettes at display sizes, while the hand-rendered texture becomes more apparent as size increases.
