A handwritten print face with monoline strokes and subtly rough, dry-brush edges that keep the contours lively. Letterforms are slim and compact with a slightly bouncy baseline and uneven stroke endings that mimic quick marker or pen lifts. Curves are simplified and open, counters are modest, and spacing feels naturally inconsistent in a controlled way, reinforcing the hand-drawn rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where a handmade voice is desirable: posters, packaging callouts, social media graphics, invitations, and craft-oriented labels. It can work for casual headings and short paragraphs, especially when paired with a cleaner companion typeface for contrast and clarity in longer reading.
The overall tone is casual and approachable, with a playful, slightly quirky energy that reads as personal rather than polished. Its imperfect edges and varied shapes suggest spontaneity and warmth, making text feel informal and human.
The design appears intended to capture the feel of quick, hand-lettered print—informal, slightly rough, and intentionally imperfect—while remaining readable and consistent enough for everyday display use.
Uppercase forms stay simple and legible, while lowercase adds more personality through varied bowls, angled joins, and occasional asymmetry. Numerals follow the same hand-rendered logic, with rounded forms and uneven terminals that keep them consistent with the alphabet. The texture remains visible even at larger sizes, where the stroke irregularities become a defining feature.
