A lively hand-drawn print face with uneven, brush-like strokes and subtly wobbly contours. Terminals alternate between rounded blobs and tapered, slightly flicked ends, giving the letters a textured, ink-on-paper feel. Curves are soft and irregular, counters tend to be small, and spacing feels organically inconsistent in a way that reinforces the handmade rhythm. Uppercase forms are expressive and slightly decorative, while the lowercase stays simple and compact, with round dots and sturdy, simplified shapes.
Best suited for short-form display use where personality matters: posters, titles, book covers, packaging, labels, and greeting cards. It also works well for branding in playful or artisanal contexts and for pull quotes or section headers, but is less ideal for long body text where its irregular rhythm may fatigue readability.
The font conveys a playful, offbeat personality—friendly and a little mischievous—like lettering from a children’s book, craft label, or whimsical poster. Its imperfect edges and varied stroke behavior add warmth and informality, suggesting spontaneity and charm rather than precision.
Likely intended to mimic casual marker or brush lettering with a deliberately imperfect finish, prioritizing character and warmth over typographic regularity. The design leans into expressive silhouettes and textured edges to create a handcrafted, approachable voice for display typography.
The overall color is quite dark for its size because of the rounded terminals and frequent stroke thickening, which can make small sizes feel dense. The numerals match the same drawn texture and chunky weight, leaning toward readability through bold silhouettes rather than strict consistency.
