A hand-drawn print style with monoline strokes and visibly uneven pressure, producing slightly wobbly contours and softened terminals. Proportions are inconsistent by design, with variable widths and a lively, irregular rhythm across the alphabet and figures. Uppercase forms are tall and roomy with simple, open shapes, while lowercase is compact with small bowls and short extenders, giving a distinctly petite body. Counters stay fairly open and the overall texture remains light and airy, though letterfit and baseline alignment vary in an intentionally informal way.
Works best for short to medium display text where personality matters—posters, packaging callouts, book or zine covers, greeting cards, and youth-oriented branding. It can also suit captions and pull quotes when you want a hand-rendered feel rather than a formal typographic voice.
The font reads like quick marker or pen lettering—friendly, personal, and a bit mischievous. Its irregularities add charm and a human presence, creating an approachable tone that feels spontaneous rather than polished.
Likely designed to capture the immediacy of informal handwritten print lettering, prioritizing character and natural variation over strict consistency. The goal appears to be a personable, sketch-like voice that stays legible while retaining a distinctly human, improvised texture.
Numerals follow the same loose, handwritten logic, with simplified forms and occasional asymmetry that reinforces the casual texture. In running text the line color is uneven in a natural way, and the spacing quirks contribute to a lively, handmade cadence.
