A compact, hand-drawn print with thick, rounded strokes and softly tapered terminals that mimic a marker or brush-pen. Letterforms are simple and open, with a slightly bouncy baseline and uneven curves that keep the texture lively. Capitals are tall and narrow with minimal internal detailing, while lowercase forms stay compact with small counters and a modest x-height feel. Overall spacing is steady but not rigid, preserving an organic rhythm in words and lines.
Works best for headlines, short blurbs, and display copy where a friendly handmade voice is desired—such as posters, kids’ materials, casual packaging, café signage, social graphics, or craft/event branding. It can also be effective for pull quotes or labels when you want an informal, human touch.
The tone is warm and lighthearted, with an informal, approachable personality. Its imperfect, drawn-by-hand regularity reads as cheerful and conversational rather than formal or technical. The chunky strokes and rounded shapes add a kid-friendly, crafty energy.
Designed to capture the look of quick marker lettering in a consistent, usable print alphabet—prioritizing charm, immediacy, and personality over typographic strictness. The narrow, chunky forms aim to stay legible while retaining a spontaneous hand-drawn feel.
The glyph set shown favors clear silhouettes and quick, gestural construction over precision, which helps it hold together in short phrases and headings. Numerals share the same rounded, hand-rendered logic, keeping the texture consistent across mixed text.
