A compact, hand-drawn print style with chunky, brush-like strokes and softly rounded terminals. The letterforms lean forward and keep a tight, narrow footprint, with uneven stroke edges that preserve a natural marker/brush texture. Proportions are intentionally irregular, with simplified bowls and open counters that keep forms readable at display sizes. Spacing feels organic rather than strictly measured, creating a lively rhythm across words and lines.
Works best in short to medium-length text where a human, informal tone is desired—such as posters, social graphics, product labels, invitations, and friendly headlines. The sturdy strokes support high-contrast applications like black-on-white layouts and simple spot-color printing.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, like quick hand lettering for notes, packaging, or casual signage. Its slightly quirky shapes and energetic slant give it a spontaneous, conversational feel rather than a polished, formal voice.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand lettering in an unconnected print style, prioritizing personality and movement over strict geometric consistency. The narrow, forward-leaning forms and brushy weight aim to deliver an energetic display texture that feels personal and approachable.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same loose, handwritten logic, with a mix of tall ascenders and compact lowercase that reinforces the sketchy, personal character. Numerals follow the same brushy construction and informal proportions, fitting comfortably alongside text for headings and short callouts.
