A casual, hand-drawn print face with mostly monoline strokes and gently irregular contours. Letterforms are built from simple, open shapes with rounded joins and soft terminals, creating a relaxed rhythm. Proportions are slightly uneven from glyph to glyph, with subtly varied stem lengths and curve widths that read as intentionally human rather than geometric. The lowercase shows straightforward, single-storey constructions with modest ascenders/descenders, and the numerals follow the same informal, rounded drawing style for a cohesive texture in text.
Well suited to friendly display and short-to-medium text where a human touch is desired—such as children’s materials, crafts and hobby branding, casual packaging, café menus, greeting cards, and informal posters. It can also work for pull quotes or headings in editorial layouts that want warmth and approachability.
The overall tone is approachable and conversational, with a lightly quirky, handmade charm. Its mild irregularities and soft shapes give it a welcoming, informal voice that feels personal without becoming overly decorative.
The design appears intended to emulate neat, handwritten print lettering—clean enough for readability, but with enough natural variation to communicate personality. It prioritizes an easygoing, personable texture over strict typographic regularity.
Spacing appears generally open, helping the face stay readable in short passages while still preserving its hand-rendered character. Curves and bowls are kept generous, and many strokes end in slightly tapered or blunted finishes that reinforce the drawn-on-paper feel.
