A casual handwritten print with a right-leaning, brush-pen feel and gently rounded terminals. Strokes are mostly monoline with occasional pressure-like swelling at curves and joins, giving a lively rhythm without looking messy. The shapes are narrow and slightly variable in width, with open counters and simplified constructions that keep the alphabet readable. Ascenders are relatively tall and the lowercase sits low, producing a compact x-height and a springy, uneven baseline typical of hand lettering.
Best suited for short-to-medium text where an informal voice is desired—social graphics, packaging callouts, invitations, greeting cards, classroom materials, and casual posters. It can work for headings and pull quotes, especially when you want a handwritten flavor that remains legible at display sizes.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick note-taking or friendly signage. Its loose, slightly bouncy motion reads as cheerful and conversational, adding personality without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident hand printing with a slight slant and brush-like modulation—more personable than a neutral sans, but controlled enough to typeset complete sentences cleanly.
Capitals mix simple print forms with occasional looped or hooked strokes, and several letters show distinctive entry/exit flicks that mimic marker lift-offs. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, with soft curves and mild irregularities that help it feel authentic in longer samples.
