A compact, hand-drawn print with thick, brush-like strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are mostly upright and narrow, with a gently uneven rhythm that preserves a human, marker-drawn feel. Strokes show subtle irregularities and mild contrast, and counters stay open enough to remain readable at display sizes. Overall spacing feels tight and lively, with slightly varied widths and a casual, organic baseline presence.
Works best for short to medium display text where a friendly, hand-lettered voice is desired—posters, menus, packaging callouts, social graphics, and playful branding. It can also support brief emphasis text in editorial layouts when paired with a calmer companion font for body copy.
The font communicates a warm, playful tone with an informal, homemade character. Its bouncy shapes and soft edges feel friendly and approachable, making text look conversational rather than formal or corporate.
The design appears intended to emulate quick, confident marker lettering: bold, compact shapes with just enough irregularity to feel personal and crafted, while staying consistent enough for repeated text and headings.
Uppercase forms are tall and compact, while lowercase maintains a small, neat footprint with simple, single-storey constructions and minimal ornament. Numerals follow the same rounded, drawn style, keeping a cohesive texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
