A compact, hand-drawn print face with thick, rounded strokes and softly irregular contours. Letters are mostly upright with a gently bouncy baseline and uneven widths that create a lively rhythm. Terminals look blunted and marker-like, counters are small but open enough for display use, and curves (notably in O/Q/S) feel slightly squashed and organic rather than geometric. Lowercase forms are simple and legible with short ascenders/descenders and single-storey constructions, while the numerals echo the same chunky, casual structure.
Best suited to short display settings where personality is more important than typographic neutrality—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, menu boards, and playful branding. It can work for brief captions or labels, but the heavy, compact texture is more effective at larger sizes than in extended reading.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick lettering on a note or menu board. Its friendly wobble and compressed shapes give it a cheeky, energetic personality that feels approachable and homemade rather than polished.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-lettered print with a bold, compact footprint. The intent appears to be a friendly, informal voice that stands out quickly, mimicking marker or brush-pen lettering while staying straightforward and readable.
Spacing appears tight and compact, contributing to a dense, punchy texture in lines of text. The set maintains consistent stroke weight and a coherent hand-rendered character while allowing small variations in curvature and stroke endings that reinforce the drawn-by-hand feel.
