A casual print face with brush-like strokes and lively, hand-drawn irregularity. Letters are generally tall and condensed, with rounded terminals, soft corners, and noticeable stroke modulation that mimics marker pressure. Curves are slightly uneven and counters vary from glyph to glyph, creating a bouncy rhythm; verticals tend to feel sturdy while joins and bowls show subtle wobble. Ascenders are prominent and lowercase forms look compact, giving the overall texture a tight, vertical emphasis.
Works best for short to medium text where personality is the priority: product packaging, café or boutique branding, book covers, invitations, craft labels, and playful posters. At larger sizes the organic stroke modulation and rounded shapes become a key graphic feature, while tighter settings can create a dense, energetic texture.
The font reads cheerful and personable, with an informal voice that feels crafted rather than engineered. Its uneven stroke behavior and gentle quirks give it a warm, approachable tone that can skew whimsical when set large.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of hand lettering in a clean, unconnected print style, balancing legibility with a distinct, friendly voice. The condensed proportions and brush-like contrast suggest an intention to stand out in display contexts without losing an everyday, approachable feel.
Capitals and lowercase have a deliberately inconsistent, handwritten character, with some glyphs leaning more brushy while others feel simpler and monoline-like. The numerals and punctuation keep the same handmade logic, helping mixed-content settings maintain a cohesive, casual texture.
