A casual handwritten print with rounded terminals and a largely monoline stroke that subtly swells and tapers like a felt-tip or brush pen. Letterforms are simplified and open, with a gently bouncy baseline and irregular, human spacing that keeps the rhythm lively without becoming chaotic. Curves are generous and slightly asymmetric, counters are roomy, and joins stay mostly unconnected, preserving a clear printed look across upper- and lowercase as well as numerals.
This font works well for short to medium text in contexts that benefit from a personal, informal tone—such as packaging, café menus, posters, classroom materials, invitations, and social media graphics. It is particularly effective in headlines, callouts, and captions where its handwritten texture can carry the message without requiring typographic precision.
The tone is warm and informal, with an easygoing, conversational feel. Its unevenness reads as intentionally hand-drawn, giving text a personable, friendly voice suited to everyday messaging rather than formal typography.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, everyday marker handwriting—clear, friendly, and quickly written—while maintaining enough consistency to function as a usable display and casual text face.
Capitals are tall and straightforward, while lowercase forms lean toward single-storey constructions and rounded shapes that prioritize quick readability. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, with soft bends and lightly varying widths that reinforce the handmade character.
