A hand-drawn print face with slender, slightly wobbly strokes and tapered, brush-like terminals. Letterforms mix rounded bowls with occasional sharp, thorny points, creating a lively rhythm and uneven, human spacing. Curves are open and airy, counters stay generous, and the overall silhouette feels lightly calligraphic without connecting strokes. The uppercase set reads taller and more expressive, while the lowercase is compact with simple, single-storey constructions and a casual, uneven baseline.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where character is more important than neutrality: display headlines, poster copy, book or chapter titles, packaging accents, greeting cards, and themed event materials. It can work for brief blurbs or captions at comfortable sizes, where the lively stroke endings and irregular rhythm remain clear.
The tone is playful and quirky, with a storybook or fantasy-leaning charm. Its spiky flicks and soft curves give it an expressive, mischievous feel that can suggest handmade notes, whimsical titles, or light theatrical flair without becoming overly formal.
The design appears intended to deliver an approachable, hand-crafted voice with a touch of whimsy. By pairing open, readable skeletons with tapered brush terminals and occasional spiky gestures, it aims to feel personal and expressive while staying usable for display typography.
Several glyphs show distinctive flicked entry/exit strokes and occasional asymmetry (notably in diagonals and curved joins), which adds personality but also introduces a deliberately irregular texture. Numerals follow the same drawn rhythm, with rounded shapes and small finishing hooks that keep them consistent with the alphabet.
