A lively handwritten print with monoline strokes and rounded terminals, showing gentle slant and a buoyant baseline. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with simplified geometry and soft curves that keep counters open and readable. Strokes have a felt-tip/marker-like solidity, and shapes vary subtly in width and balance, reinforcing a natural, drawn rhythm without becoming messy.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where warmth and informality are desired, such as children’s content, craft and food packaging, casual posters, and greeting cards. It also works nicely for headings, callouts, and UI microcopy that benefits from a human touch, provided ample size and spacing are used for clarity.
The overall tone is cheerful and approachable, with a lighthearted, conversational energy. Its imperfect, hand-made consistency feels personable and informal, lending a playful character that suits friendly messaging and kid-adjacent themes without looking overly decorative.
Designed to mimic quick, confident marker lettering in a clean, repeatable way—prioritizing approachability and easy readability over strict typographic precision. The compact, slightly slanted forms aim to deliver a friendly, hand-drawn voice that remains consistent across longer passages.
Capitals are simple and bold with smooth curves, while lowercase forms stay straightforward and highly legible, leaning on single-storey constructions and rounded joins. Numerals match the same soft, drawn logic, keeping a consistent color and texture across mixed-case text.
