A lively hand-drawn print face with rounded, marker-like strokes and softly swollen curves. The forms lean slightly and show subtle irregularities in stroke edges and proportions, creating a natural handwritten rhythm. Counters are generally open and simple, with minimal detail and smooth joins; terminals tend to be blunt and rounded rather than sharp. Spacing feels loose and informal, with a slightly bouncy baseline and varied letter widths that enhance the drawn-by-hand character.
Works best where a personable, handmade voice is needed—posters, packaging, café menus, children’s materials, and social media graphics. It can also serve short labels, stickers, and light branding applications where warmth and informality are desirable, especially at medium to larger sizes.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a youthful, informal energy. Its soft, rounded shapes read as friendly and humorous rather than serious or formal, giving text an easygoing, conversational feel.
Likely designed to mimic quick marker lettering with consistent stroke weight and intentionally imperfect, human proportions. The goal appears to be an accessible, friendly display hand that stays legible while preserving a spontaneous, drawn texture.
Capitals are tall and prominent with simplified constructions, while lowercase maintains a compact, handwritten proportion and clear, unconnected letterforms. Numerals follow the same rounded, hand-rendered logic, matching the letter texture well for casual UI labels or playful numbering.
