A monoline, hand-drawn print face with tall proportions and generous vertical rhythm. Strokes stay consistently thin with softly rounded terminals and occasional wobble that reads as pen-drawn rather than geometric. Forms are open and lightly irregular, with narrow counters and simple construction; curves tend to be oval and slightly asymmetric, and joins feel organic instead of engineered. Spacing is relatively loose for such slim letters, giving the lines a light, breathable texture in text.
Works well for short to medium text where an informal, handmade tone is desired—such as posters, packaging callouts, greeting cards, classroom materials, and social graphics. It can also serve as a friendly companion font for headings or pull quotes when paired with a sturdier text face.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a gently quirky, handwritten charm. Its slim, sketch-like presence feels approachable and conversational, leaning more playful than serious without becoming overly decorative.
Likely designed to emulate neat, everyday handwriting with a clean, minimal stroke and a relaxed, personable rhythm. The intent appears to balance legibility with a subtle hand-drawn quirk, making it suitable for upbeat editorial and display applications.
Capitals are simple and legible, while the lowercase introduces more personality through looped shapes (notably in letters like g, j, y) and soft, rounded bowls. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, keeping the set cohesive and maintaining the lightly uneven, human rhythm across mixed text.
