A compact, hand-drawn print face with thick, rounded strokes and softly blunted terminals. Letterforms are tall and slim with gently irregular curves and subtly wavy verticals, giving a drawn-with-marker feel. Counters are small and sometimes asymmetrical, and spacing/widths vary slightly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an informal, human rhythm. The lowercase includes simple single-storey forms and a short, cross-like t, while numerals follow the same condensed, rounded construction.
Well suited to short-to-medium display text where a personable, handmade voice is desired—such as children’s materials, playful posters, packaging labels, social graphics, and craft or DIY branding. Its condensed build can help fit longer words into tighter spaces while still keeping a bold visual presence.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a lively, slightly goofy personality. Its narrow, tall silhouettes and soft edges read as friendly and kid-adjacent without becoming overly decorative, making it feel conversational and informal.
Likely intended to provide a simple, legible hand-printed look with a friendly, humorous character. The tall, compact proportions and rounded marker-like strokes suggest a focus on casual display use that feels warm, human, and energetic.
The design stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, with an emphasis on rounded shapes and minimal sharp corners. The condensed proportions create a strong vertical cadence in lines of text, while the mild irregularities keep it from feeling rigid or geometric.
