A casual, brush-pen style with thick, rounded strokes and soft terminals that suggest a felt-tip or paint marker. Letterforms lean forward with a consistent slant, while stroke weight stays fairly even with subtle thick–thin modulation from the implied tool angle. Proportions are compact with a low x-height and buoyant rhythm; curves are full and slightly inflated, and joins feel hand-drawn rather than mechanically precise. Width varies noticeably across characters, giving the line a natural, handwritten cadence.
Best suited to short-to-medium headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and social media graphics where an informal, handwritten presence is desired. It can also work for inviting signage or kid-focused materials, especially at sizes where the chunky strokes and compact counters remain clear.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, with a warm, conversational feel. Its energetic slant and slightly exaggerated curves add a playful voice that reads as personable rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to mimic quick, confident handwriting made with a brush or marker, prioritizing warmth and immediacy over strict uniformity. The forward slant, rounded forms, and variable widths aim to create energetic texture and friendly emphasis in display settings.
Counters tend to be small and rounded, and many forms show gentle asymmetries and stroke wobble that enhance the hand-rendered character. Numerals share the same marker-like construction and forward motion, supporting a cohesive, note-like texture in running text.
