A compact, hand-drawn print face with uneven stroke edges and a lightly brushy, inked texture. Letterforms are simplified and slightly condensed, with irregular curves, soft corners, and occasional spurs and hooks that give the outlines a lively wobble. Stroke weight fluctuates subtly within and across glyphs, and spacing feels loose and human, producing an energetic rhythm rather than strict typographic uniformity. Numerals and capitals share the same casual construction, with rounded counters and an intentionally inconsistent finish that reads like marker or brush lettering.
Well-suited for short display text such as posters, packaging labels, book covers, and social media graphics where a human, handmade voice is desirable. It also works for playful headings or pull quotes, especially when paired with a more neutral text face for longer reading.
The font conveys an informal, approachable tone with a quirky, homemade charm. Its imperfect contours and bouncy rhythm feel friendly and spontaneous, suggesting hand-lettered notes, doodles, or crafty signage rather than polished corporate typography.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand lettering in an unconnected print style—prioritizing personality, warmth, and visual motion over strict consistency. Its condensed, lively forms aim to stay legible while retaining an intentionally rough, organic finish.
Capitals are relatively tall and prominent compared to the lowercase, while the lowercase stays compact with simple, open shapes that keep words readable at display sizes. Curves and diagonals often show slight wobble and taper, reinforcing the drawn-by-hand character.
