A hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes, softly rounded terminals, and slightly irregular curves that preserve a natural pen-on-paper rhythm. Proportions are compact and relatively tall, with modest counters and gentle asymmetry that keeps the texture lively rather than mechanical. Capitals are simple and legible, while lowercase forms show casual construction (single-storey a, open bowls, and a straightforward, narrow t) with consistent spacing and a clean baseline presence.
Works well for titles, short blurbs, and supporting text where a personable, handmade voice is desired—such as children’s materials, craft and boutique branding, casual packaging, invitations, and social graphics. It can also serve as a light display option for posters and headings that benefit from an informal, human touch.
The overall tone is approachable and informal, with a light, conversational feel suited to friendly messaging. Subtle inconsistencies and rounded shapes give it a playful, handcrafted warmth without becoming messy or overly expressive.
The design appears intended to emulate neat, everyday handwriting in an unconnected print style—prioritizing clarity and friendliness while retaining the small imperfections that signal something made by hand.
Numerals follow the same simple, drawn structure and remain clear at text sizes, matching the alphabet’s understated irregularity. The sample text shows even color and readable word shapes, with enough differentiation between similar forms to work in short paragraphs.
