A lively hand-drawn print face with rounded strokes and gently irregular geometry. Letterforms lean on simple, open bowls and soft, tapered terminals, with occasional bulb-like endings and subtly uneven curves that preserve a marker/pen rhythm. Proportions feel compact with relatively small lowercase bodies and tall ascenders, while capitals are narrow and slightly eclectic in structure. Curves dominate, counters remain open, and the overall texture stays consistent despite intentionally varied stroke joins and widths.
Works well for children’s and family-oriented materials, greeting cards, craft labels, and playful packaging where a friendly handwritten voice is desired. It can also suit short display copy on posters or headers, especially when a casual, human touch is more important than typographic strictness.
The tone is lighthearted and approachable, with a whimsical, storybook energy. Its bouncy rhythm and imperfect contours read as personal and human, making it feel informal and friendly rather than formal or technical.
Designed to emulate informal hand-lettered printing with a consistent, readable skeleton while retaining natural variation and a playful cadence. The goal appears to be an approachable display hand that stays legible in phrases and short paragraphs without losing its drawn character.
Uppercase and lowercase have noticeably different personalities, enhancing the handmade charm but reducing strict uniformity. Numerals match the rounded, drawn feel, with simple forms and soft turns that keep the set cohesive in text.
