A hand-drawn print style with slender, mostly monoline strokes and gently rounded terminals. The proportions lean tall and narrow, with a notably small x-height and frequent long ascenders/descenders that create airy vertical rhythm. Letterforms are intentionally uneven in width and spacing, with simplified geometry and occasional soft curves and hooks (especially in lowercase), giving the set a lightly irregular, pen-drawn consistency. Counters are open and clean, and the overall texture stays light rather than dense, even in longer text.
Best suited to display applications where its tall, handwritten character can be appreciated—posters, short headlines, packaging accents, greeting cards, and children’s or educational materials. It can work for brief passages in larger sizes, but the small x-height and narrow construction favor short, expressive copy over dense reading.
The font feels friendly and offbeat, with a quirky, storybook-like charm. Its lightly imperfect construction reads informal and approachable, suggesting a personal note, classroom poster, or playful brand voice rather than a strict typographic tone.
Designed to mimic neat, hand-printed lettering with a deliberate touch of irregularity. The goal appears to be an informal, personable voice that remains legible while retaining the spontaneity and charm of drawn letterforms.
Uppercase letters tend to be narrow and linear, while lowercase introduces more personality through looped forms and extended descenders, increasing contrast in rhythm between cases. Numerals follow the same lean, handwritten logic, keeping strokes simple and maintaining a cohesive, sketch-like flow across the set.
