A lively, hand-rendered print face with gently slanted, brush-like strokes and subtly irregular outlines. Letterforms show noticeable stroke modulation and soft, tapered terminals, producing an ink-on-paper feel rather than geometric precision. Proportions are narrow-to-moderate with uneven character widths and a bouncy baseline rhythm; counters are open and forms remain generally legible despite the intentionally variable stroke edges. Capitals are expressive and slightly calligraphic, while lowercase maintains a compact height with tall ascenders and descenders that add vertical energy.
Works best for display and short-to-medium text where a human, hand-drawn voice is desirable—such as book covers, chapter heads, artisanal packaging, café menus, greeting cards, and event materials. It can also add warmth to pull quotes or headlines in editorial layouts, especially when paired with a calmer body typeface.
The overall tone is informal and personable, with a quaint, slightly old-world charm. Its textured strokes and uneven rhythm evoke hand-lettered notes, folklore titles, and crafted signage, reading as friendly and expressive rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to simulate confident hand lettering with brush-pen texture and natural variation, balancing readability with character. The intent appears to be an approachable, illustrative print style that brings warmth and personality to headings and brand-forward text.
Curves tend to be rounded and slightly wobbly, and joins often appear as if made with a quick brush lift, creating small notches and flares. The numerals and punctuation follow the same hand-made logic, keeping the set visually consistent in longer text samples.
