A hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes and softly tapered terminals that mimic marker or brush pressure. Letterforms are built from rounded bowls and open curves, with a lively, slightly irregular baseline and varied glyph widths that create an easy, conversational rhythm. Counters are generally generous and shapes stay open, while occasional pointed joins and hook-like endings add character without becoming connected script. Numerals follow the same informal construction, with simple, rounded forms and subtle stroke modulation at ends.
Works best in short to medium text where a friendly handwritten texture is desired—such as children’s content, invitations and greeting cards, labels and packaging, classroom materials, and casual social or lifestyle graphics. It also suits headings and pull quotes that benefit from an informal, personable voice.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, reading like neat casual handwriting. Its unevenness feels intentional and human, giving text a personable, crafty warmth suited to informal communication.
Designed to simulate clean, readable hand lettering with a playful wobble and gentle terminal flicks, prioritizing warmth and character while keeping shapes open enough for comfortable reading.
Capitals are simplified and friendly rather than formal, and the lowercase maintains a consistent handwritten logic with clear differentiation between key shapes. Spacing appears airy and forgiving, emphasizing texture and charm over strict typographic uniformity.
