A casual handwritten print with a consistent slant and smooth, brush-like strokes. The letterforms are narrow and compact, with rounded terminals, gentle curves, and a generally monoline feel with only slight modulation. Spacing and widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, creating an organic rhythm; bowls and counters stay open and legible, while ascenders and descenders are kept relatively tight for a neat, upright block of text. Capitals are simplified and slightly looser than the lowercase, helping create an easy, informal hierarchy.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a personable handwritten feel is desired: packaging callouts, café menus, posters, social posts, greeting cards, and quote graphics. It can also serve as an accent face alongside a neutral sans for headings, labels, and informal branding touchpoints.
The overall tone is friendly and approachable, with a quick, spontaneous energy that reads as personal rather than polished. Its bouncy rhythm and soft endings give it a warm, conversational voice suited to informal messaging.
Designed to capture the look of quick, neat hand lettering in an unconnected print style, balancing informality with readability. The narrow proportions and consistent slant aim to keep lines compact while maintaining an energetic, friendly cadence.
The numerals and punctuation match the same brisk, handwritten flow, with rounded joins and a steady rightward motion. The texture stays even in longer lines, producing a clean handwritten color without heavy blotting or sharp calligraphic contrast.
