A casual, hand-drawn print style with thick, rounded strokes and softly irregular contours. Letterforms lean on simple geometry—open bowls, blunt terminals, and occasional tapered joins—creating a marker-like texture without visible pen-angle contrast. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed, with lively width variation from glyph to glyph and a gently bouncy baseline. Counters stay fairly open for the style, and the overall rhythm feels intentionally imperfect, as if written quickly but consistently.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a friendly, handmade look is desired—such as kids-focused branding, packaging, stickers, posters, and social media graphics. It also fits headings and callouts in editorial or educational materials where warmth and informality are more important than strict typographic regularity.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, suggesting an informal, human voice. Its rounded shapes and uneven edges read as friendly and a bit whimsical rather than formal or technical. The overall effect is warm and conversational, suited to lighthearted messaging.
Designed to emulate a confident, hand-lettered marker print with a consistent stroke and casual irregularities. The intention appears to be creating an easygoing, personable texture that remains legible while preserving the spontaneity of handwritten forms.
Uppercase forms are simplified and bold, with distinctive, slightly quirky constructions (notably in curved letters and diagonals) that emphasize personality over precision. Lowercase maintains the same chunky stroke weight, with clear, single-storey forms and straightforward punctuation behavior in running text. Numerals match the hand-drawn feel, with rounded curves and uneven widths that keep the set cohesive.
