A compact, hand-drawn print with blunt terminals and visibly irregular stroke edges that mimic a marker or brush on paper. Letterforms are built from simple, rounded shapes with uneven curves and occasional flattening, creating a gently wobbly baseline and inconsistent counters. The texture is solid but rugged, with small kinks and thickness fluctuations that read as natural pressure changes rather than geometric construction. Capitals are tall and narrow with straightforward structure, while lowercase stays small with similarly simple bowls and minimal detail, keeping the overall rhythm tight and informal.
This font works best in short to medium settings where personality matters more than typographic neutrality—posters, packaging, labels, and bold social graphics. It can also serve for playful branding elements, pull quotes, or section headers, especially when you want a handmade look that remains readable at display sizes.
The tone is casual and homemade, with a slightly gritty charm that feels approachable rather than polished. Its unevenness adds personality and humor, giving text a zine-like, crafty energy suited to expressive, human-forward messaging.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of quick hand lettering—simple printed shapes, compact proportions, and intentionally imperfect outlines—so text feels personal and tactile. It prioritizes character and texture over uniformity, offering a friendly, slightly rough voice for informal communication.
Spacing and glyph widths vary noticeably, which enhances the hand-rendered feel and creates a lively, uneven color in lines of text. Numerals follow the same rough, rounded language, remaining clear while preserving the imperfect, drawn-in-one-go character.
