A casual, marker-like print with rounded, swollen strokes and noticeably irregular stroke widths that mimic pressure changes from a brush or felt tip. Forms are mostly upright with a bouncy baseline feel, open counters, and soft, tapered terminals rather than sharp cuts. Caps are compact and slightly varied in proportion, while lowercase is simple and highly legible, favoring single-story structures and broad curves. Numerals match the same informal rhythm, with smooth, simplified shapes and a hand-drawn consistency across the set.
Works well for short to medium-length copy where personality is desired: packaging labels, café menus, event posters, classroom materials, greeting cards, and social media graphics. Its bold, rounded construction also suits playful branding and callouts, especially when set at larger sizes where the stroke texture can be appreciated.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with an energetic, human cadence that feels spontaneous rather than engineered. It reads as cheerful and conversational—more like handwriting on packaging or a note than a formal script or typographic display face.
Designed to capture an informal, hand-drawn print look with friendly legibility—combining bold presence with the natural variation of a real marker stroke to add character without sacrificing clarity.
Spacing appears comfortably loose and forgiving, supporting readability even with the lively stroke behavior. The heavier downstrokes and soft joins give it a slightly “painted” texture that remains clean enough for digital UI-scale use in larger sizes.
