A casual, hand-drawn print style with slender strokes and gentle, organic curvature. Letterforms show subtle irregularities in stroke weight and contour, creating a lively rhythm without becoming messy. Terminals are mostly rounded or softly tapered, and bowls tend toward open, simple shapes; counters are generous for the stroke weight. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with slightly uneven widths and spacing that reinforce a natural, handwritten texture.
Well-suited for display use where a friendly, handmade voice is desired—children’s materials, playful packaging, casual branding, invitations, and poster headlines. It also works for short bursts of text such as captions, pull quotes, and social graphics where personality matters more than strict typographic uniformity.
The overall tone is lighthearted and approachable, with a quirky, storybook feel. Its imperfect, drawn-by-hand consistency reads as personal and informal, lending warmth and a sense of spontaneity to headings and short phrases.
Designed to mimic neat, unconnected hand lettering with an intentionally imperfect cadence. The aim appears to be a readable, personable print face that adds charm and informality while staying clear enough for general display and light text use.
Uppercase forms are clean and legible while retaining hand-made character, and the lowercase maintains a buoyant baseline and relaxed construction. Numerals follow the same informal logic, matching the letters with simple shapes and soft terminals for a cohesive voice.
