A rounded, heavy handwritten print with soft corners and a slightly bouncy baseline. Strokes keep a largely uniform thickness with gently swelling curves, giving letters a chunky, inked feel. Counters are open and generously sized, and terminals tend to be blunt or softly tapered. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the hand-drawn rhythm while staying clear and readable at display sizes.
Well-suited for playful display work such as children’s publishing, classroom resources, posters, and cheerful packaging. It works best in headlines, short phrases, labels, and callouts where its bold, rounded shapes can carry personality without needing tight typographic refinement.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with an informal, upbeat personality. Its uneven, hand-rendered rhythm suggests spontaneity and friendliness rather than precision, making it feel conversational and inviting.
The design appears intended to emulate a thick marker or felt-tip hand, prioritizing friendliness, immediacy, and strong presence. It aims for clear, uncomplicated letterforms with just enough irregularity to read as genuinely hand-drawn.
Uppercase forms are broad and simple with rounded joins, while lowercase stays print-like rather than cursive, aiding quick recognition. The numerals are similarly rounded and robust, matching the letterforms closely for cohesive headings and short strings.
