A lively hand-drawn print face with brush-like strokes and visible edge texture. Forms are generally rounded with soft corners, uneven stroke boundaries, and occasional tapered terminals that suggest quick marker or dry-brush movement. Proportions are intentionally inconsistent: widths and counters vary from glyph to glyph, creating an animated rhythm, while the baseline and cap alignment feel loosely controlled rather than mechanical. Uppercase shapes are bold and open, lowercase remains clear but irregular, and numerals are simplified and slightly chunky for quick readability.
Works best in short to medium settings where a handcrafted, upbeat personality is desirable—posters, display headlines, packaging callouts, quotes, and social graphics. It can also suit kid-friendly or hobby-oriented branding, where slight irregularity adds charm and authenticity.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like handwritten signage or notes made with a broad felt-tip. Its mild roughness and bouncing rhythm add humor and spontaneity, giving text a warm, approachable voice rather than a polished corporate feel.
Designed to emulate quick, confident hand lettering with a slightly rough brush/marker texture, prioritizing character and warmth over strict uniformity. The set aims for legible, bold shapes that retain the spontaneity of handwritten strokes.
The texture is consistent across the set, with small nicks and waviness along curves and diagonals. Round letters (O/C/G/Q) show especially organic contours, while diagonals (K/V/W/X/Y) have brisk, energetic strokes that enhance the handmade character. Spacing appears naturally uneven, contributing to the casual, drawn-by-hand look.
