A hand-drawn print style with slightly irregular strokes and softened, rounded terminals. The letterforms are mostly upright with a narrow overall footprint and variable character widths, creating a lively, uneven rhythm typical of marker or brush drawing. Curves are full and gently flattened in places, counters stay open, and many joins and endings show small flicks or taper-like shaping that adds personality without becoming messy. The lowercase uses a compact x-height relative to tall ascenders and descenders, and numerals follow the same informal, slightly bouncy construction.
Well-suited to playful headings, short paragraphs, and packaging or label work where a friendly handwritten print voice is desired. It can also serve for invitations, classroom materials, and informal signage, especially when set with generous spacing to let the irregular rhythm breathe.
The font reads as approachable and human, with a storybook and crafty tone. Its mild irregularity and rounded finishing give it a warm, handmade feel that suggests casual notes, children’s materials, and lighthearted branding rather than formal editorial settings.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, hand-printed lettering with a controlled but human texture—clean enough for readability, yet characterful enough to feel personal and homemade.
Consistency is maintained through repeated terminal shapes and a steady stroke presence, while subtle per-glyph quirks (especially in bowls and diagonals) keep the texture organic. In longer text the line color remains fairly even, but the personality is most apparent at display sizes where the drawn details and slight wobble are more visible.
