A casual, hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. The outlines show intentional irregularity and wobble, with slightly uneven curves and stroke joins that mimic marker or brush-pen lettering. Proportions are simplified and open, with generous counters and a modest baseline bounce that creates an easy rhythm in text. Capitals are straightforward and slightly narrow in places, while lowercase forms stay simple and legible, with single-storey constructions and minimal detailing.
Works well for children’s materials, casual posters, DIY and craft branding, friendly packaging, and informal invitations or greetings. It can also serve short paragraphs where a warm, handwritten texture is desired, especially in print or social graphics.
The font feels friendly and informal, with a lighthearted, homemade character. Its slightly imperfect contours and relaxed spacing give it an approachable, conversational tone suited to personal or crafty contexts rather than formal typography.
Designed to emulate neat, unconnected hand lettering with an intentionally imperfect, drawn-on feel. The goal appears to be a readable everyday print style that adds personality and warmth without becoming overly decorative.
Distinctive touches include a lively, angled tail on the uppercase Q, rounded bowls on characters like B/P/R, and numeric forms that keep a handwritten looseness (notably the open, curving 2 and the rounded 8). Overall consistency is strong enough for paragraph use, while the organic irregularities remain visible at display sizes.
