A compact, hand-drawn print face with tall, narrow proportions and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes are thick with subtle modulation and frequent tapered terminals that give letters a brushy, slightly chiseled feel. Curves are rounded and slightly lopsided, counters are small, and joins vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, drawn-by-hand texture. Overall spacing feels tight and the silhouette of words becomes dark and animated, especially in longer lines of text.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where personality is desired: posters, playful branding, packaging, kids’ materials, and casual event invitations. It can work for brief paragraphs at larger sizes, but its dense color and narrow fit are most effective for headlines, subheads, and punchy callouts.
The font reads as cheerful and quirky, with a casual, storybook energy. Its irregularities and soft shapes convey friendliness and humor rather than formality, making the tone feel approachable and lightly eccentric.
The design appears intended to mimic informal marker or brush lettering while keeping characters distinct and readable. It prioritizes charm and handmade character over strict geometric consistency, creating a distinctive display voice that stands out in branding and promotional text.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same narrow, upright stance, with lowercase forms staying relatively compact and legible while retaining noticeable hand-rendered quirks (notably in diagonals and curved letters). Numerals follow the same playful construction, with rounded bowls and tapered ends that keep them visually consistent with the letters.
