A chunky, rounded print face with brush-like stroke endings and softly tapered joins. Letterforms are simple and open, with a gently uneven rhythm that suggests hand-drawn construction while staying highly consistent across the set. Corners are fully softened, counters tend toward circular/oval shapes, and many strokes swell slightly in the middle, giving a bouncy, organic texture. Capitals are compact and sturdy, and the lowercase shows approachable, simplified forms (single-storey a and g) with generous spacing and clear silhouettes.
Works best for short-to-medium text where a friendly voice is desired: children’s books, classroom materials, playful packaging, café or boutique signage, greeting cards, and social graphics. Its heavy, rounded shapes make it especially effective for headlines, labels, and display copy that needs to feel inviting and casual.
The overall tone is cheerful and informal, with a warm, approachable personality. Its soft curves and slightly wobbly stroke energy read as friendly and youthful rather than strict or technical, making text feel conversational and lighthearted.
Designed to mimic an easygoing hand-lettered print style with bold, rounded strokes and a lively rhythm, prioritizing warmth, immediacy, and readability over formal typographic refinement.
The numerals follow the same rounded, hand-drawn logic, with broad, dark shapes and simple construction that favors quick recognition over precision. The texture remains smooth and filled (not dry-brushed), so it stays legible at medium sizes while still feeling handmade.
