A casual handwritten print with a slightly right-leaning slant and smooth, rounded stroke endings. Strokes read as mostly monoline with mild pressure variation, giving clean, confident marks without looking mechanical. Proportions are compact, with tall ascenders/uppercase relative to the lowercase and a notably small x-height; counters are open and shapes stay legible even with the relaxed drawing. Character widths vary noticeably, creating an uneven, natural rhythm, and many forms show subtle wobble and asymmetry typical of marker or pen lettering.
Well suited to casual branding, packaging callouts, and poster headlines where a friendly handwritten voice is needed. It also works well for social media graphics, invitations, greeting cards, and short editorial pull quotes, especially at display sizes where the natural stroke rhythm and varied widths can be appreciated.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a light, conversational energy. Its gentle irregularities and soft terminals feel human and approachable, leaning more playful than formal while remaining clear enough for everyday messaging.
Designed to capture an easy, everyday handwriting feel in a clean print style, balancing legibility with visible human character. The intent appears to be a personable, upbeat texture for display use rather than a rigid, uniform typographic voice.
Uppercase forms are simple and upright-leaning with minimal ornament, while the lowercase includes a single-storey a and g and a straightforward, handwritten construction throughout. Numerals are rounded and friendly, matching the same stroke texture and relaxed spacing. The sample text shows comfortable readability at larger sizes, with a lively baseline and letterfit that emphasizes a hand-drawn cadence.
