An informal handwritten print with a smooth, monoline stroke and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are rounded and slightly condensed, with lively baseline movement and subtly varied character widths that mimic natural pen rhythm. Terminals tend to be softly tapered and curved, and the overall construction favors simple, open shapes over rigid geometry.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired, such as greeting cards, invitations, quotes, lifestyle branding, and social media graphics. It also works well for packaging accents and headings where an approachable, personal tone is more important than strict typographic neutrality.
The tone is warm and conversational, like neat everyday handwriting. Its gentle slant and bouncy rhythm give it a lighthearted, personable feel that reads as human and relaxed rather than formal or technical.
Designed to emulate clean, casual pen lettering that stays readable in continuous text while retaining the spontaneity of handwriting. The consistent stroke and soft curves aim for an easygoing, welcoming look that can carry a wide range of informal messages.
Uppercase forms are straightforward and legible, while lowercase shapes show more personality through looped descenders and curved joins within individual letters. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with smooth curves and uncomplicated forms that blend naturally with surrounding text.
