A compact, hand-drawn print with chunky strokes and softly rounded corners. Letterforms show deliberate irregularity: strokes wobble slightly, terminals vary between blunt and subtly tapered, and bowls are somewhat squarish with uneven curvature. The texture suggests a marker or dry-brush edge rather than clean vector geometry, with occasional pinching and bulging that creates a lively rhythm. Spacing and widths vary per glyph, giving lines a bouncy, informal cadence while staying consistently legible.
Works best for short to medium-length text where a hand-lettered feel is desired—posters, playful headlines, packaging accents, craft or handmade branding, and informal signage. The bold, textured presence helps it hold up at display sizes and in high-contrast applications like black-on-light layouts.
The overall tone is friendly and homemade, with a casual, slightly mischievous character. Its imperfect, hand-rendered edges evoke craft materials and hand-lettered signage, reading as approachable rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to simulate quick, confident hand-printing with a marker-like tool, prioritizing warmth and personality over mechanical precision. The intent appears to be an expressive display face that adds human texture and an easygoing voice to titles and emphasis text.
Uppercase forms feel poster-like with simplified construction and minimal interior detailing, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, single-storey, handwritten sensibility. Numerals match the same chunky, uneven stroke behavior, supporting cohesive set-wide texture.
