A lively, hand-drawn print style with thick, rounded strokes and softly irregular contours. Letterforms show a gentle rightward slant and an uneven, human rhythm, with small variations in width and stroke taper that suggest marker or brush pressure. Terminals are mostly blunt and curved, counters are open and simple, and the overall spacing feels airy despite the heavy line weight, keeping words readable at display sizes.
Works well for short to medium-length display text where a casual handmade voice is desired, such as posters, headers, packaging callouts, labels, invitations, and social graphics. It is especially effective when paired with clean supporting type for body copy, letting the font provide warmth and emphasis.
The font conveys an upbeat, approachable tone—informal and personable, like quick handwritten signage or notes. Its bouncy shapes and slight wobble add charm and spontaneity, making it feel friendly rather than formal or corporate.
The design appears intended to emulate an easy, everyday handwritten print with bold presence—prioritizing friendliness, immediacy, and visual texture over geometric precision. It aims to deliver a distinctive, approachable voice for branding and display applications.
Uppercase forms are straightforward and legible with softened corners, while lowercase adds more personality through varied ascenders/descenders and a slightly uneven baseline. Numerals share the same hand-drawn character, with rounded joins and simple, chunky silhouettes that match the text texture in longer samples.
