A casual hand-drawn print with rounded, slightly condensed letterforms and a gently bouncy baseline. Strokes show subtle brush-pen modulation and occasional tapering, with softly irregular curves that keep the texture lively without becoming messy. Terminals are mostly rounded and blunted, counters are open, and spacing feels airy, giving words a relaxed rhythm. Numerals and capitals maintain the same hand-rendered logic, with small, human variations that read as intentional and consistent.
Works well for short-to-medium display copy where a friendly, hand-lettered presence is desired—such as greeting cards, invitations, posters, labels, and playful packaging. It’s also well suited to social graphics and headings where a casual, personable tone helps the message feel approachable.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a lighthearted, conversational feel. Its brushy texture and soft forms suggest informality and charm, lending text a personal, handmade voice suitable for upbeat messaging.
Designed to emulate quick brush-pen lettering in an unconnected print style, balancing legibility with visible human nuance. The aim appears to be an informal display face that adds personality and warmth without the complexity of a fully cursive script.
Capitals are tall and prominent, while lowercase letters sit relatively low with compact bowls and modest ascenders/descenders, reinforcing the font’s friendly, compact color. The texture is even across the set, but small asymmetries and variable stroke joins add character and keep repeated letters from feeling mechanical.
