A chunky, rounded handwritten print with soft terminals and subtly tapered strokes that feel marker- or brush-drawn. Letters are compact and slightly condensed, with a lively, uneven rhythm and gentle baseline wobble. Counters are small to moderate, curves are full and bulbous, and stroke joins stay smooth rather than sharp, giving the shapes a cushioned look. Spacing is fairly tight and the overall color is dark and solid, with small variations in width that keep it informal.
Works well for short, expressive text such as headlines, posters, labels, invitations, and social graphics where a friendly handmade voice is desired. It’s also suitable for children’s content and playful branding, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the rounded shapes and tight counters stay clear.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, like casual lettering for crafts, kids’ materials, or lighthearted packaging. Its bouncy proportions and soft edges suggest warmth and humor rather than precision or formality.
Designed to mimic quick, confident hand lettering with a soft brush/marker feel, prioritizing personality and warmth over geometric regularity. The condensed, chunky forms aim to deliver a strong, cheerful presence in display settings.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent handmade logic, with single-storey, simplified forms and rounded numerals. The distinctive irregularities—slight stroke swell, occasional asymmetry, and varied character widths—add personality and help it read as authentically drawn.
