A compact, hand-drawn print face with tall, narrow proportions and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes are heavy and mostly monoline, with rounded corners and softened, slightly tapered terminals that suggest a marker or brush-pen feel. Letterforms lean on simple constructions—single-story lowercase a and g, narrow bowls, and occasional hooked descenders—while spacing and widths vary enough to keep an organic, handwritten cadence. The overall silhouette stays clean and legible, with smooth curves and minimal interior detailing.
Best suited to short text where personality matters—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and social graphics. It can also work for brief supporting copy in playful branding or educational/kids-oriented materials, especially when generous line spacing is available.
The tone is warm and informal, with a cheerful, homemade character that feels personable rather than polished. Its narrow, energetic shapes give it a nimble, upbeat voice suited to lighthearted messaging and friendly branding.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of casual hand lettering while remaining consistent enough for repeatable typesetting. Its narrow proportions and sturdy strokes aim for high impact in compact spaces without losing a friendly, approachable feel.
Uppercase forms read as simplified display capitals with rounded shoulders and occasional quirky joins, while the lowercase carries most of the handwritten personality. Numerals share the same soft, drawn quality, with open shapes and rounded turns that keep the set visually consistent.
