A rounded, marker-like print face with heavy monoline strokes and softly blunted terminals. Letterforms are slightly bouncy with gentle irregularities in curves and joins, giving an organic, hand-drawn rhythm while staying highly consistent across the set. Counters are open and generous, with simple single-storey lowercase shapes and compact, rounded numerals that match the overall softness.
Works well for short to medium text in children’s publishing, educational materials, playful packaging, and friendly signage. It’s especially effective in headlines, callouts, captions, and branding situations where an inviting, hand-drawn feel is desired.
The tone is warm and upbeat, reading as friendly and informal rather than strict or technical. Its smooth curves and slightly uneven, hand-made cadence suggest a cheerful, personable voice that feels at home in lighthearted messaging.
Designed to mimic confident hand-printed lettering with a thick marker, balancing playful irregularity with consistent construction for readability. The goal appears to be an accessible, friendly display text style that stays legible while feeling casual and human.
Capitals are simple and sturdy with minimal contrast, while lowercase maintains clear silhouettes and roomy apertures for quick recognition. The overall color is dark and even on the page, and the rounded terminals help keep dense text from feeling sharp or severe.
