A casual, hand-drawn print face with rounded, brush-like strokes and softly tapered terminals. Letterforms are upright with a gentle bounce and slight variability in stroke curvature and width, giving it an organic, written feel while remaining clearly legible. Counters are open and generous, curves are smooth and pillowy, and joins are simplified; diagonals and arcs show subtle irregularities that reinforce the handmade rhythm. The overall texture is even and bold enough for display, with consistent spacing that still preserves a natural, non-mechanical cadence.
Well suited to cheerful headlines, short paragraphs, and callouts where warmth and informality are desired—such as children’s publishing, playful branding, packaging, classroom materials, invitations, and social media graphics. It can also work for signage or labels where a friendly handmade tone helps soften the message.
The font reads as friendly and lighthearted, like marker or brush lettering used for notes, crafts, and kid-facing materials. Its rounded forms and relaxed rhythm give it an inviting, personable tone rather than a formal or technical one.
Designed to capture the look of neat, hand-printed marker lettering—casual and personable, but structured enough for comfortable reading in short text blocks.
Uppercase characters are simple and sturdy, while the lowercase set leans more handwritten with distinct ascenders/descenders and soft, looping shapes (notably in letters like a, g, and y). Numerals match the same rounded, drawn style and keep a clear, approachable silhouette suited to general-purpose labeling.
