A clean, hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes, rounded terminals, and gently irregular curves that preserve a natural pen rhythm. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed, with open counters and simplified, single-storey lowercase forms (notably a and g). Letterforms show mild baseline wobble and small variations in stroke flow, keeping the texture lively while remaining consistent enough for continuous reading.
Works well for short to medium text where an approachable handwritten voice is desired—titles, captions, quotes, invitations, and educational or kid-focused materials. It also suits branding accents on packaging, café menus, and social graphics where a friendly, human touch is more important than strict typographic precision.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like neat handwriting used for notes, classroom materials, or friendly packaging. Its quirky curves and soft endings give it a lighthearted, human feel without becoming messy or overly expressive.
Likely designed to capture neat, everyday handwriting in an unconnected print style—prioritizing clarity and charm while retaining subtle imperfections that signal authenticity and warmth.
Capitals are straightforward and legible, while the lowercase introduces more personality through loops and hooked descenders (for example in j, y, and g). Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic with rounded shapes and modest quirks, helping mixed alphanumeric settings feel cohesive.
