A casual hand-drawn print with slim, tall proportions and a lightly brush-like stroke. Letterforms show subtle contrast and organic modulation, with rounded joins, soft terminals, and occasional tapered starts and finishes that suggest pen or brush pressure. The rhythm is loose and lively rather than mechanically even, with slightly irregular curves and widths that keep the texture animated. Ascenders are prominent, counters are open, and overall spacing feels airy, helping the narrow forms remain readable.
Works well for short-to-medium display text where an informal, human touch is desired—such as packaging, café menus, posters, greeting cards, classroom materials, and social graphics. It can also add personality to headings and pull quotes, especially when paired with a neutral sans for longer body copy.
The font reads warm and approachable, with a cheerful, informal tone that feels personal and conversational. Its gentle wobble and rounded shapes give it a playful, kid-friendly energy without becoming chaotic, making it feel handmade and inviting.
Designed to capture the feel of neat, hand-printed lettering with a brush-pen liveliness—balancing legibility with visible, intentional imperfections for a personable, everyday voice.
Uppercase forms lean toward simple, sign-painter-like constructions, while lowercase shows more personality through varied bowls and looped strokes. Numerals are similarly hand-rendered, with smooth curves and occasional asymmetry that matches the alphabet’s relaxed character.
