A rounded sans with an intentionally irregular, hand-rendered outline. Strokes are monolinear overall but show subtle wobble and uneven edges, creating a slightly textured silhouette as if drawn with a marker or brush pen. Curves are soft and open, terminals are blunt and gently rounded, and counters stay fairly generous for readability. Proportions are moderately varied from glyph to glyph, lending a lively rhythm in words while keeping a consistent overall structure.
Well suited to packaging, posters, and short headlines where a handmade feel adds personality. It also works for social media graphics, invitations, and kid-friendly branding that benefits from an approachable, informal voice. For longer passages, it’s best used at comfortable sizes with sufficient leading to let the textured outlines breathe.
The font reads warm and human, with a casual, conversational tone. Its imperfect contours feel craft-oriented and personal rather than technical, giving text an easygoing, friendly presence that can also skew slightly quirky.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-lettered, marker-drawn signage while retaining the familiar structure of a simple sans. Its goal is to inject warmth and spontaneity into straightforward letterforms without relying on high contrast or decorative detailing.
The irregular stroke edges become more noticeable at larger sizes, where the handmade texture turns into a key part of the style. At smaller sizes the shapes remain legible, but the unevenness can add visual noise compared to a clean geometric sans.
