A casual, hand-drawn print style with mostly monoline strokes and gently rounded forms. Terminals are soft and slightly tapered, with subtle wobble and small irregularities that mimic marker or felt-tip movement. Proportions are compact with a relatively low x-height, while ascenders and capitals feel airy and open. Counters are generally generous and shapes favor simple geometry—round bowls, curved joins, and lightly varied stroke endings—creating an easy, readable rhythm in text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where an informal, friendly presence is desired, such as children’s content, invitations and greeting cards, casual posters, labels, and packaging. It also works for UI accents or social graphics when a human, non-corporate tone is more important than strict typographic regularity.
The tone is warm and informal, with a lighthearted, kid-friendly feel. Its unevenness reads as human and conversational rather than polished or corporate, giving text a personable, handmade voice.
Designed to capture the look of neat hand printing—clear, rounded letterforms with just enough natural variation to feel drawn rather than typeset. The overall intention appears to balance approachability and legibility, making it useful for playful display and readable captions alike.
Capitals keep simple, rounded silhouettes with a slightly bouncy baseline impression in running text. Lowercase forms lean toward single-storey, handwriting-like construction, and numerals follow the same friendly, rounded logic, helping mixed alphanumeric strings stay cohesive.
