A hand-drawn, print-style sans with softly rounded strokes and gently irregular contours. Letterforms show a steady vertical posture with slight width variation from glyph to glyph, giving a natural handwritten rhythm. Terminals are blunt and subtly tapered, curves are open and smooth, and counters remain clear at text sizes. Uppercase forms are simple and legible, while lowercase adds more personality through single-storey shapes and occasional hook-like joins and descenders. Numerals follow the same informal construction, with rounded bowls and uncomplicated silhouettes.
Well suited for children’s materials, casual packaging, posters, and short editorial callouts where a friendly, handmade feel is desired. It also works for invitations, café menus, labels, and social graphics that benefit from an approachable, personal tone. For longer passages, it’s best used at comfortable sizes where its organic texture reads as intentional.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a light, personable character that feels like neat marker or brush lettering. Its mild quirks and unevenness keep it human and relaxed rather than technical or rigid, lending a playful, inviting voice to short messages.
Designed to capture the immediacy of neat hand printing while maintaining consistent, usable letterforms for display and short text. The intention appears to balance clarity with a deliberately human, slightly quirky rhythm that communicates warmth and informality.
Stroke contrast stays modest, but the drawing shows small variations in thickness and curvature that create a lively texture across lines of text. Spacing appears comfortable and the shapes remain readable, though the handcrafted irregularities become a defining part of the color on the page.
