A tall, narrow hand-drawn print with lively stroke modulation and a lightly brushed finish. Strokes often swell through verticals and taper to fine, hairline terminals, creating a rhythmic high/low contrast that feels organic rather than mechanical. Counters are generally open and rounded, with slightly irregular curves and subtly uneven joins that reinforce a drawn-by-hand texture. Uppercase forms are slender and upright with simplified construction, while lowercase maintains a consistent, friendly structure with occasional flicked entry/exit strokes and soft, teardrop-like endings in places. Overall spacing reads airy, and the letterforms keep a cohesive, intentionally imperfect consistency across the set.
Best suited to short to medium-length display text where its hand-drawn charm and lively contrast can be appreciated—greeting cards, invitations, quotes, posters, and playful packaging. It can also work for headings or pull quotes in editorial or educational layouts when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The font conveys a lighthearted, personable tone—more sketchbook than formal calligraphy. Its narrow, bouncy silhouettes and brush-tapered endings give it a whimsical, storybook character that feels approachable and informal.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, casual handwritten printing with a refined, brush-tapered edge—delivering personality and warmth while staying legible and organized. It balances a consistent underlying structure with small irregularities to keep the texture human and expressive.
The contrast is expressed mostly through thickened vertical stems and very thin hairline curves/terminals, which adds sparkle at larger sizes but can make the finest strokes feel delicate in small settings. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, mixing sturdy stems with thin loops and tapered terminals for a cohesive texture.
