A hand-drawn print face with open, brush-like strokes and gently uneven letterforms. Stems taper into pointed terminals and occasional flicks, with modest stroke modulation and a slightly irregular baseline rhythm. Counters are generous and rounded, while proportions vary from glyph to glyph, giving a loose, sketched consistency rather than strict geometric repetition. Uppercase forms feel tall and narrow with simple construction, and the numerals match the same light, wiry stroke behavior.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where a human, relaxed personality is desirable—such as posters, packaging, invitations, book covers, and social media graphics. It can work for brief passages at comfortable sizes, but the lively irregularities and narrow proportions will read strongest in headings, pull quotes, and brand accents.
The overall tone is informal and personable, with a spirited, sketchbook quality. Its slightly bouncy rhythm and tapered finishes create a lighthearted, approachable voice that feels spontaneous rather than polished.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident marker or brush lettering in an unconnected print style, balancing legibility with visible hand movement. The aim appears to be a casual display voice with enough consistency for repeated use while preserving the charm of drawn imperfections.
Spacing and widths appear intentionally inconsistent, reinforcing the natural handwriting effect. Curves often resolve into sharp, calligraphic points, and joins remain mostly unconnected, keeping text readable while still clearly handmade.
