A casual hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. The letterforms are tall and compact, with simplified construction and slightly uneven geometry that preserves a natural marker/pen rhythm. Curves are open and airy, counters are generous, and joins are kept minimal, giving the alphabet a clean but informal texture. Numerals and lowercase follow the same straightforward, lightly irregular drawing style for a cohesive, approachable set.
Works well for short to medium text where an informal, hand-written voice is desired—children’s materials, playful packaging, greeting cards, casual posters, and social graphics. It is especially effective in headlines, labels, and pull quotes where its narrow, hand-drawn texture can add personality without heavy stylization.
The overall tone is lighthearted and personable, with a kidlike, sketchbook energy that feels warm rather than polished. Its gentle irregularities and narrow, upright stance give it a chatty, human presence suited to informal messaging.
Designed to emulate quick, neat hand printing with consistent stroke weight and a friendly, slightly imperfect rhythm. The intent appears to be an easygoing, approachable display hand that stays legible while retaining a human, drawn-by-hand character.
Uppercase shapes tend toward simple, single-stroke logic (notably in straight-sided forms), while rounded characters keep a soft, friendly silhouette. The lowercase has a compact, understated feel with small bowls and brief extenders, keeping lines of text tidy and lively at the same time.
