A hand-drawn print face with brush-like strokes and visibly uneven edges that give each letter a textured, inked feel. Strokes are moderately thick with subtle contrast created by pressure changes, and terminals tend to be rounded or slightly blunted rather than sharply cut. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with a gently wandering baseline and small irregularities in curves and counters that reinforce the drawn-by-hand character. The lowercase is simple and open, with compact bowls and tall, narrow ascenders; figures are similarly casual with soft curves and slightly lopsided geometry.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, cover titles, labels, and packaging where the brush texture and handmade rhythm can be appreciated. It can work for short paragraphs in informal contexts, but it shines most in headlines, quotes, and branding that benefit from a personable, artisanal feel.
The overall tone is warm, approachable, and a bit rustic—more like lettering from a sketchbook or a café chalkboard than a polished corporate typeface. Its irregular rhythm reads as human and expressive, lending a friendly, informal voice to short messages and headings.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand lettering—retaining stroke texture, slight wobble, and natural variation to feel personal and authentic. It prioritizes charm and character over mechanical uniformity, aiming for a relaxed, human-made impression.
Capitals have a slightly playful presence and can feel a touch heavier than the lowercase in running text, adding emphasis when used for titles. The texture becomes a defining feature at larger sizes, while at smaller sizes the lively edge detail may reduce crispness compared with cleaner print styles.
