A casual hand-drawn print with slender strokes, rounded terminals, and a slightly wobbly, marker-like line quality. The letterforms are mostly unconnected and upright, with loose, organic curvature and small inconsistencies that reinforce the drawn-by-hand character. Proportions are condensed overall, with compact lowercase and tall, narrow capitals and ascenders; counters stay fairly open, helping clarity despite the narrow build. Spacing feels irregular in a natural way, creating a lively rhythm rather than strict typographic uniformity.
Well-suited for short-to-medium text where a personal, informal voice is desired, such as notes, invitations, labels, packaging copy, and casual posters. It can also work for social graphics and headline treatments where a hand-drawn texture adds warmth and spontaneity.
The font conveys an approachable, informal tone that reads like quick handwriting cleaned up into a consistent set. Its narrow, energetic shapes and playful irregularities give it a chatty, personal feel suited to lighthearted messaging rather than formal typography.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, natural marker/pen printing while maintaining enough consistency to function as a usable text face. Its condensed proportions and lively stroke behavior suggest a goal of fitting more characters into a line without losing the handmade charm.
Capitals tend to be taller and more expressive than the lowercase, and several characters show distinctive handwritten gestures (notably the looped descenders and the single-storey lowercase forms). Numerals follow the same drawn rhythm, with simple, slightly quirky constructions that match the alphabet.
