A compact, hand-drawn print style with narrow, slightly variable letter widths and a steady, inked stroke that stays mostly uniform while showing subtle pressure changes. Forms are tall and condensed with rounded ends, gentle curves, and occasional asymmetry that reinforces a handmade rhythm. Capitals are simple and upright, lowercase is compact with a relatively small x-height, and counters are kept open enough to remain readable despite the dense proportions.
Works well for short-to-medium headlines, packaging callouts, greeting cards, classroom materials, and playful brand touchpoints where an informal handwritten print is desired. Its narrow build can help fit longer words into tight spaces, though the compact lowercase and bold color may be better at display sizes than small UI text.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, with a lively, bouncy cadence that feels human and spontaneous rather than engineered. Its quirky narrowness and soft terminals give it a lighthearted, crafty personality well suited to cheerful messaging.
Likely designed to capture the charm of quick, hand-lettered marker printing in a tidy, upright, space-saving silhouette. The aim appears to balance personality and readability while keeping a consistent, friendly texture across letters and numerals.
The texture suggests marker or brush-pen drawing: edges are smooth but not mechanical, with small inconsistencies in stroke joins and curves that add warmth. Spacing appears fairly even in running text, while individual glyphs retain distinct hand-lettered character.
