A hand-drawn print face with tall, slender letterforms and a monoline stroke that stays largely even across curves and straights. Terminals are softly rounded with occasional brush-like swelling, giving strokes a slightly organic, uneven edge without becoming rough. Proportions are narrow and vertical, with simplified construction and open counters; spacing feels airy and somewhat irregular in a natural handwritten way. The lowercase is compact with small bowls and a relatively modest x-height, while ascenders and capitals stretch high, creating a lively vertical rhythm.
Works best for short to medium lines such as headlines, captions, invitations, packaging callouts, and playful poster copy where a friendly handwritten flavor is desired. The narrow build helps in space-conscious layouts, while the tall ascenders add emphasis for display settings.
The overall tone is lighthearted and personable, like neat marker lettering made for labels or notes. Its tall, bouncy rhythm and subtle inconsistencies keep it from feeling formal, leaning instead toward an approachable, kid-friendly charm.
The design appears intended to mimic clean, informal hand lettering with consistent stroke weight and a tall, condensed silhouette. It prioritizes charm and readability over typographic rigidity, delivering a casual voice suitable for cheerful, everyday messaging.
Distinctive features include narrow, elongated capitals, single-storey lowercase forms, and gently curved joins that avoid sharp corners. Numerals follow the same casual drawing logic, staying simple and readable with rounded ends.
