A casual, hand-drawn roman with monospaced spacing and softly serifed forms. Strokes are low-contrast and slightly irregular, with rounded corners and blunt, brush-like terminals that give each letter a carved or marker-rendered feel. Capitals are narrow and tall with simplified serifs and gentle curves, while lowercase shapes stay open and readable, showing small asymmetries and a lightly bouncy rhythm. Numerals follow the same relaxed construction, with simple, rounded bowls and modest flourish in a few joints and endings.
Well suited to display and short-to-medium text where a crafted, approachable voice is desired—such as packaging, café menus, posters, book covers, and playful editorial headlines. The monospaced structure can also work effectively for stylized quotations, captions, or themed layouts that benefit from an even, typewriter-like alignment without losing a handwritten feel.
The overall tone is informal and personable, suggesting hand-lettered signage or notebook typography. Its measured monospacing keeps the texture orderly, while the organic stroke quirks add warmth and a slightly whimsical, storybook character.
Likely intended to blend the orderliness of fixed-width spacing with the personality of hand-drawn letterforms, creating a readable but distinctly human texture. The softened serifs and gentle irregularities appear designed to evoke informal calligraphy and hand-lettered print without connecting strokes.
In paragraph text the consistent character widths create a steady vertical cadence, but the varying stroke behavior and subtle baseline wobble prevent it from feeling mechanical. The design leans on softened serifs and curved joins rather than sharp pen-contrast, which helps maintain clarity at moderate sizes while preserving a hand-rendered voice.
