A casual print face with gently irregular, hand-drawn construction and a lightly textured stroke edge. Forms are slim with open counters and rounded terminals, mixing straight stems with soft, slightly wobbly curves. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, giving an organic rhythm; curves are often slightly asymmetric, and joins show the natural hesitation of pen lettering. Lowercase is compact with a modest x-height and simple, single-storey shapes, while capitals stay clean and legible with understated flare-like terminals.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly voice is desired—such as children’s materials, invitations, labels, and small-brand packaging. It also works nicely for headings, pull quotes, and poster copy where an informal, handmade feel supports the message.
The overall tone is warm and personable, with a playful, storybook-like charm. Its unevenness feels intentional and approachable, suggesting human touch rather than strict precision.
Designed to capture the look of neat, unconnected hand printing: legible and consistent enough for continuous reading, but with enough natural variation to feel personal and lightly whimsical.
Numerals and punctuation match the same hand-rendered logic, with rounded, open shapes and small idiosyncrasies that keep text lively. The texture and slight variability become more noticeable at larger sizes, where the drawn character reads as a feature rather than noise.
