A casual hand-drawn print with a mostly monoline stroke and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms show deliberate irregularities in curve smoothness and stroke edges, giving a marker/pen-like texture without heavy buildup. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, with a compact lowercase and slightly taller, loosely constructed capitals. Curves are open and generous, while joins and diagonals keep a quick, sketched rhythm that produces an uneven, human baseline and lively spacing.
Works well for short to medium text where a friendly, handmade voice is desired—greeting cards, craft or indie branding, classroom materials, invitations, and social media graphics. It also suits posters and headers that benefit from an informal, personal feel, especially when set with comfortable tracking to accommodate its variable letter widths.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, like quick notebook lettering. Its mild wobble and imperfect geometry communicate informality and warmth, leaning playful rather than polished or technical.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, legible hand printing—prioritizing approachability and character over strict consistency. Its controlled irregularity aims to feel authentic and human while remaining readable in common display and casual text settings.
Capitals are simple and readable with minimal flourish, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation between similarly shaped forms (such as i/j with distinct dots). Numerals follow the same drawn rhythm and vary in width, reinforcing the informal, handmade cadence in running text.
