A narrow, hand-drawn print face with smooth, rounded stroke terminals and an informal, slightly brushy line quality. Strokes read mostly monoline with gentle modulation, and curves are soft and pillowy rather than geometric. Proportions are tall and condensed, with compact counters and a lively baseline rhythm that suggests natural pen movement. Forms stay consistent across the set while retaining subtle irregularities that keep the texture human and approachable.
Works well for short-to-medium copy where a friendly handmade voice is desired, such as children’s and educational materials, craft branding, labels, café menus, and casual posters. It also suits social media graphics and headlines where a narrow, space-saving handwritten look is helpful.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, with a doodled, storybook warmth. Its narrow, bouncy forms feel lighthearted and inviting, leaning more crafty and whimsical than formal or technical.
Likely drawn to provide an easygoing, approachable print-handwriting style that remains readable while adding personality. The condensed proportions and consistent rhythm suggest an intent to fit more characters in tight spaces without losing the casual, human feel.
Capitals are simple and legible, with occasional quirky details (notably in diagonals and bowls) that add charm without breaking readability. Numerals follow the same tall, hand-lettered logic, making the set feel cohesive in mixed text.
