A hand-drawn print style with tall, narrow proportions and a lightly bouncy rhythm. Strokes are mostly monoline with subtle, organic thick–thin shifts and rounded terminals, giving the outlines a soft, slightly wobbly edge. Letterforms lean on simple, open construction—single-storey lowercase shapes, compact bowls, and gently uneven curves—while caps and numerals keep a clean, legible silhouette. Spacing and widths vary modestly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the natural, marker-like cadence.
Well-suited to children’s and educational materials, casual editorial callouts, packaging and labels, and friendly posters or flyers where a human touch is desirable. It works best at display and larger text sizes, where the hand-drawn terminals and narrow proportions remain clear and intentional.
The overall tone is lighthearted and approachable, with a storybook informality that feels personable rather than polished. Its narrow, upright stance reads tidy, while the hand-made irregularities add charm and a bit of quirky character.
Designed to mimic neat hand lettering in an informal print style, balancing readability with playful, human irregularity. The intent appears to be a friendly, approachable voice that can add warmth and personality without becoming overly decorative.
In text, the tall ascenders and relatively small lowercase presence create a distinctive texture, with punctuation and dots reading clearly against the even stroke weight. The numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, staying simple and readable while retaining the rounded, casual finish.
