A lively handwritten print with rounded, brush-like strokes and softly tapered terminals. The letterforms show a gentle rightward slant and an uneven, organic rhythm, with slight variations in stroke width and character widths that reinforce a drawn-by-hand feel. Counters are open and generous, and many shapes lean on simple, single-stroke construction, giving the alphabet a quick, confident look. Numerals follow the same informal logic, with smooth curves and occasional asymmetry that keeps the texture human.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text in cheerful, everyday contexts such as packaging callouts, social posts, invitations, and handmade-feeling branding. It also works nicely for headings and pull quotes where a casual, personable voice is desired, and can handle simple paragraph samples when set with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like neat marker lettering on a note, label, or classroom poster. Its bouncy cadence and softened shapes read as personable and upbeat rather than formal or technical.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-printed brush or marker lettering while staying readable and cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The aim appears to be an informal, friendly display texture that feels personal without becoming overly decorative.
Capitals are friendly and simplified, while lowercase forms stay compact and legible with minimal joins, preserving a printed (unconnected) handwriting style. The texture is intentionally imperfect—consistent enough for paragraphs, but with enough wobble and taper to keep it expressive.
