A monoline handwritten print with tall, airy proportions and generous vertical rhythm. Strokes keep a consistent thickness and end in softly rounded terminals, with subtle wobble and small asymmetries that preserve a drawn-by-hand feel. Letterforms are simplified and open, favoring smooth curves, narrow counters, and lightly irregular widths; the lowercase shows long ascenders and descenders that add a bouncy texture in text. Numerals follow the same relaxed, rounded construction for a cohesive set.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where an approachable handwritten voice is desired, such as greeting cards, invitations, labels, and casual packaging. It also works nicely for posters, social graphics, and playful headlines that benefit from a neat but personal look.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, like neat marker lettering in a notebook. Its gentle irregularities and tall, slim shapes give it a quirky, lighthearted personality without becoming messy.
The font appears designed to emulate clean, hand-printed lettering with a slim, tall profile and consistent monoline strokes. Its purpose seems to be providing an easygoing, personable alternative to neutral sans fonts while maintaining legibility in everyday display and UI-style applications.
Spacing appears even and readable in running text, with a calm baseline and consistent stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and figures. The design leans on simple geometry rather than calligraphic modulation, helping it stay clear at smaller sizes while still feeling human.
