A tall, compact handwritten print with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are narrow with simplified construction and gentle irregularities that keep the texture lively without becoming messy. Strokes show subtle wobble and slight baseline/height variation, while counters stay open and readable. The overall rhythm is springy and vertical, with occasional asymmetry and loop-like joins in characters such as the Q and g that add personality.
Works best for short-to-medium display text where a friendly, handmade voice is desired—posters, labels, packaging callouts, classroom materials, invitations, and casual social graphics. The compact width can help fit longer words into tight spaces while still keeping an informal, drawn look.
The font reads as lighthearted and approachable, with a doodled, human touch. Its narrow, upright stance and bouncy shapes give it an energetic, kid-friendly tone that feels conversational and unpretentious rather than formal or technical.
Designed to mimic quick marker or pen printing: narrow, upright letters with consistent stroke weight, small imperfections, and cheerful proportions for an approachable, everyday handwritten feel.
Capitals are slender and prominent, while lowercase forms remain simple and compact, creating a slightly top-heavy feel in mixed-case text. Numerals are similarly narrow and rounded, matching the hand-drawn texture and maintaining clarity at display sizes.
