A monoline, hand-drawn print style with softly rounded corners and gently uneven stroke flow. Letterforms are simple and open, with small irregularities in curves and joins that create a natural pen-drawn rhythm. Terminals tend to be blunt and slightly tapered, counters are roomy, and spacing feels relaxed, giving lines of text an airy, informal texture. Numerals follow the same drawn logic, with straightforward construction and mild wobble that keeps the set cohesive.
This font suits short to medium-length text where an informal, friendly voice is needed—such as children’s materials, greeting cards, labels, and casual posters. It also works well for headings, captions, and pull quotes in editorial or social content that benefits from a handmade, approachable texture.
The overall tone is warm and conversational, with a lighthearted, sketchbook-like personality. Its slight wobble and rounded shapes read as human and unpretentious, leaning toward playful rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, everyday handwriting in an unconnected print form, prioritizing warmth and readability while preserving the subtle imperfections of a hand-drawn line.
Uppercase and lowercase are clearly differentiated, with a single-storey "a" and "g" contributing to the handwritten feel. The "i" and "j" have small round dots, and several letters show subtly varied curvature from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, drawn-by-hand consistency.
