A lively, hand-drawn calligraphic serif with gently irregular contours and a slightly uneven rhythm. Strokes show modest, pen-like contrast and frequent flared or wedge-shaped terminals, giving many letters a carved, brushy finish. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with softly rounded bowls, subtly skewed curves, and occasional asymmetry that reinforces a handmade feel. The overall texture is dark and energetic, staying readable while maintaining a loose, informal precision.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, posters, book covers, and playful branding where character and warmth matter. It can work for short to medium passages (taglines, pull quotes, invitations) when set with comfortable tracking and generous leading, letting the lively shapes breathe.
The font conveys a whimsical, storybook tone—friendly and expressive rather than formal. Its irregularities and flared terminals add charm and motion, suggesting a crafted, human touch that feels theatrical and a bit mischievous.
The design appears intended to emulate a confident, hand-lettered serif written with a broad or flexible pen, balancing legibility with deliberate irregularity. It aims to provide an expressive, crafted voice for editorial and branding contexts that benefit from personality over strict typographic uniformity.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent hand-rendered logic, with noticeable variation in stroke endings and curve tension that adds visual personality in running text. Numerals follow the same calligraphic construction, with rounded counters and tapered joins that keep them cohesive with the alphabet.
