A hand-drawn print style with rounded, softly irregular contours and a brushy, slightly textured edge. Strokes show subtle pressure variation and occasional wobble, giving each letter a natural, marker-or-brush look while maintaining clear, simple skeletons. Proportions are generally compact with generous inner counters, and spacing feels loosely even, with small variations in glyph width and stroke terminals that reinforce the handmade rhythm.
Well-suited for short to medium display text where a human, handcrafted voice is desired—such as posters, product packaging, book covers, craft branding, and social graphics. It can also work for headings and pull quotes in editorial layouts when paired with a more neutral text face for body copy.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, with a lively, imperfect charm that reads as personal and crafted rather than polished or corporate. Its bouncy rhythm and softened shapes create a warm, kid-friendly feel that can also suggest DIY, indie, or artisanal personality.
Designed to evoke the immediacy of hand lettering with a brush or marker while staying readable across a full alphabet and numerals. The controlled irregularity appears intentional, aiming for a casual, personable look that feels energetic and made-by-hand.
Capitals are bold and attention-grabbing with simplified forms, while lowercase remains legible and consistent in character. Numerals are similarly hand-rendered with rounded joins and slightly uneven curves, matching the friendly, organic texture seen across the alphabet.
