A light, upright slab serif with square, mostly unbracketed terminals and a gently irregular, hand-drawn rhythm. Strokes stay fairly even in weight, with subtle wobble in stems and baselines that creates a lively texture. Curves are soft but not overly round, and many joins and terminals end in small, flat slabs that read as lightly carved. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with compact lowercase and a relatively small x-height, while capitals are tall and open with slightly uneven widths and spacing.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where personality matters—children’s and educational material, boutique packaging, café menus, event posters, and brand marks that want a casual handmade voice. It can work in display settings and brief passages, where its lively rhythm remains charming rather than distracting.
The overall tone is whimsical and personable, like lettering from a children’s book or a craft label. Its mild quirks and uneven cadence feel human and approachable rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif structure with a hand-lettered, slightly irregular finish, prioritizing warmth and character over strict geometric regularity. It aims for an approachable display serif that stays readable while projecting a playful, crafted identity.
The irregularity appears intentional and consistent across letters and figures, giving text a gently animated flow. Numerals follow the same hand-rendered logic, with simple shapes and slabbed ends that keep them stylistically cohesive with the alphabet.
