A hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes, rounded terminals, and slightly uneven curves that preserve a natural marker-pen rhythm. Forms are tall and slim overall, with open counters and simplified construction that favors clarity over precision. The baseline and x-height feel intentionally irregular, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, adding a casual, doodled texture in text. Numerals and capitals share the same narrow, upright stance and soft, blunted corners.
Well suited to short to medium-length copy where a warm, handmade feel is desired: kids-oriented materials, invitations, greeting cards, product labels, and playful packaging. It can also work for headings and posters when you want an informal, handwritten signal while keeping letters unconnected and easy to parse.
The tone is light, approachable, and a bit quirky, like neat handwriting used for notes or classroom materials. Its narrow, bouncy shapes and gently imperfect consistency create an informal, friendly voice that reads as personable rather than corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic tidy, hand-printed lettering with a narrow footprint and a deliberately imperfect, human cadence. It prioritizes friendliness and legibility in casual settings, offering a simple marker-like texture that feels personal and upbeat.
In running text, the tall proportions and tight letterfit can create a lively, slightly compressed color, while the rounded joins keep it from feeling rigid. The overall character stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, with a clear emphasis on simplicity and charm.
