A chunky hand-drawn print with rounded terminals and softly irregular contours that mimic a felt-tip or brush marker. Strokes are thick and largely even, with subtle wobble and occasional swelling at curves and joins. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with simplified construction and open counters that keep the shapes readable. The baseline and spacing feel intentionally loose and human, creating a lively rhythm rather than rigid alignment.
This font is well suited to short-to-medium display copy where personality matters—posters, packaging callouts, stickers, and social media graphics. It can also work for friendly branding accents or section headers, especially when paired with a neutral text face for longer reading.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a homemade, sketchbook energy. Its uneven edges and buoyant proportions give it a warm, informal voice that feels conversational and kid-friendly without becoming overly decorative.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand-lettered marker writing in a consistent, repeatable set of glyphs. It prioritizes charm and visibility through heavy strokes, rounded forms, and a deliberately imperfect, human rhythm.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent handwritten logic, and the numerals follow the same rounded, heavy marker treatment. The texture is smooth rather than scratchy, emphasizing solid fills and soft corners over dry-brush grain.
