A compact, hand-drawn print face with thick, rounded strokes and a soft, brush-pen finish. Forms are slightly slanted with lively, variable pressure and gently tapered terminals that read as painted rather than mechanically uniform. Counters are small and rounded, proportions are condensed, and spacing feels tight but consistent, creating a dense, energetic texture. The drawing favors smooth curves and bulb-like joins over sharp corners, with subtle irregularities that reinforce its handmade rhythm.
Well suited to packaging, posters, and headlines where an informal, friendly voice is needed. It also fits social media graphics, invitations, and children’s or hobby-related materials, especially when used in short phrases or brand accents rather than long body text.
The overall tone is cheerful and approachable, with a bouncy, informal cadence that feels conversational and lighthearted. Its chunky, rounded shapes give it a kid-friendly and craft-oriented personality while the slight slant adds motion and warmth.
Designed to capture the immediacy of a thick marker or brush pen in an unconnected print style, emphasizing warmth, approachability, and hand-made charm. The condensed, rounded construction appears intended to deliver high impact in limited space while retaining a casual, personable feel.
Legibility is strongest at display and short-text sizes where the heavy strokes and compact proportions read as intentional character. The numerals follow the same rounded, hand-painted logic, and the sample text shows a consistent stroke texture across mixed case with an expressive, marker-like voice.
