A relaxed, hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are simple and slightly irregular, with gentle wobble in curves and mild variation in glyph widths that creates a natural handwritten rhythm. Counters tend to stay open and clear, while joins and shoulders are smoothed rather than sharply constructed. The overall texture is airy and informal, with consistent stroke thickness and a lightly bouncy, human baseline feel across text.
Works well for informal headlines and short-to-medium text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—such as children’s materials, casual packaging, stickers and labels, café or boutique signage, and social media graphics. It can also add warmth to invitations, cards, and lightweight brand accents when a personal, approachable feel is needed.
The font reads as cheerful and personable, like neat marker or felt-tip handwriting. Its looseness and rounded finishing lend an easygoing tone that feels welcoming rather than formal or technical. It suggests spontaneity and friendliness without becoming overly messy.
Designed to emulate clean, everyday handwriting in an unconnected print style, prioritizing warmth and readability over strict typographic uniformity. The consistent monoline stroke and rounded shapes aim to deliver a dependable hand-made character suitable for casual communication.
Capitals are straightforward and legible with simplified geometry, while lowercase keeps a casual, note-like flow. Dots on i/j are small and round, and numerals share the same hand-drawn softness, helping mixed text (words and numbers) feel cohesive.
