A casual, hand-drawn monoline with rounded terminals and gently irregular curves that preserve a consistent stroke color. Letterforms are narrow overall but vary in character widths, creating a lively rhythm. Counters are open and soft, bowls are rounded, and joins are slightly wobbly in a natural marker/pen-like way. Ascenders are tall and prominent while the lowercase sits relatively low, and punctuation/dots are simple and circular.
Works well for headlines, short paragraphs, and display text where a friendly handmade feel is desired—such as children’s materials, casual branding, café or craft packaging, event invitations, and social media graphics. It can also suit signage and labels when a relaxed, human tone is more important than strict typographic regularity.
The overall tone is approachable and lightly quirky, with a storybook informality that feels personable rather than polished. Its unevenness reads as intentional and human, giving text a warm, conversational voice.
Designed to emulate neat, informal hand printing with a consistent pen stroke and just enough irregularity to feel authentic. The narrow proportions and rounded construction aim to keep text compact while maintaining a soft, approachable character.
Capitals are simple and legible with minimal stylization, while select letters (like the looping descenders and the more playful curves in S, J, and g) add character without breaking readability. Numerals follow the same rounded, hand-rendered logic, including a simple straight 1 and a soft, open 2/3 with curved terminals.
