A chunky, hand-drawn print face with rounded terminals, slightly irregular curves, and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, with soft swelling at joins and occasional tapered ends that suggest marker or brush pressure. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with wide bowls and compact counters, and an overall compact, vertical posture. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a short, simple t, and a generous, loopless y; numerals are similarly rounded and simplified for a cohesive, doodled look.
Works well for children-oriented materials, playful packaging, posters, and social media graphics where a friendly, handcrafted tone is desired. It also suits labels, stickers, and short headlines that benefit from bold, simple shapes and an informal voice.
The letterforms feel cheerful and approachable, with a kid-like spontaneity and a light comic energy. Its imperfect, handmade texture reads as warm and personal rather than formal or technical.
Likely designed to emulate casual hand lettering with a marker-like feel—prioritizing charm, immediacy, and character over strict geometric consistency.
Spacing appears open and forgiving, helping the heavy strokes stay readable in short lines. The silhouettes are strong and high-contrast against the page, but the playful irregularities make it better suited to expressive display settings than long, dense text blocks.
