A lively hand-drawn print style with rounded terminals and a subtly brushed stroke that creates noticeable thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with a low x-height and gently irregular curves that feel drawn rather than constructed. Stems and bowls stay mostly upright, while soft entry/exit flicks and occasional loop-like details add character; spacing reads open and breathable in text despite the narrow proportions.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display text where a friendly handmade voice is desired, such as children’s titles, craft and food packaging, invitations, greeting cards, and boutique branding. It can also work for pull quotes or headings in editorial layouts when a playful, personal tone is needed.
The overall tone is warm, approachable, and a bit mischievous—more storybook and craft-like than formal. Its uneven, human rhythm suggests personality and movement, making it feel conversational and informal.
Designed to evoke an informal marker/brush handwriting look in a clean, readable print form, balancing charm and legibility. The compact proportions and animated stroke modulation aim to deliver a distinctive, cheerful voice for display typography.
Capitals show playful, sometimes simplified structures (notably rounded, open forms and occasional swashy hooks), while lowercase maintains a consistent handwritten rhythm without connecting strokes. Numerals match the same soft, curvy logic, with a casual, slightly decorative feel that keeps them prominent in display settings.
