A lively, hand-drawn print face with uneven stroke edges and subtly chiseled terminals that mimic a brush or felt-tip dragged across paper. Letterforms are mostly upright with compact proportions and a notably short x-height, giving lowercase a tight, bouncy rhythm while tall ascenders and capitals take visual priority. Strokes show moderate contrast and frequent swelling at curves, with small wedge-like flares that read as informal, soft serifs. Widths vary from glyph to glyph, and counters are slightly irregular, reinforcing a crafted, analog look rather than geometric consistency.
Best suited to display uses such as headlines, posters, packaging, and cover titling where an informal, handmade tone is desired. It can work well for short blurbs, pull quotes, and playful branding, especially when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The overall tone is quirky and approachable, with a slightly rustic, storybook flavor. Its roughened edges and uneven rhythm feel human and spontaneous, lending a casual, characterful voice that can read as whimsical or lightly vintage depending on color and setting.
The design appears intended to capture the warmth of hand-lettered print with consistent enough structure for repeated use, while preserving the irregularities—uneven edges, flared terminals, and variable glyph widths—that signal a drawn, personal touch.
Capitals have strong presence and distinct silhouettes, while the lowercase stays compact and animated, helping short words and headings feel expressive. Numerals share the same hand-cut texture and asymmetry, keeping mixed text cohesive. The face is most convincing at sizes where the textured edges and terminal flares remain visible.
