A casual hand-drawn print style with monoline strokes and gently rounded terminals. Letterforms are open and slightly irregular, with a lively baseline and subtle wobble that keeps the rhythm organic rather than geometric. Curves are generous and simplified, counters stay roomy, and overall spacing feels airy, supporting readability while preserving a sketched character. Numerals match the alphabet’s easygoing construction and maintain consistent stroke behavior across the set.
Well-suited for short to medium text in friendly contexts such as children’s publishing, educational handouts, invitations and greeting cards, and casual branding for crafts or small goods. It also works well for headings, quotes, and UI accents where an approachable handwritten tone is desired.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a playful, human presence that reads like neat marker or pen printing. Its mild irregularities add warmth and personality without becoming messy, giving text a conversational, approachable feel.
Designed to mimic tidy, everyday hand printing with consistent monoline strokes and softened shapes, prioritizing warmth and legibility over precision. The intent appears to be an easygoing display-and-text hybrid that brings a personal, human touch to a wide range of casual communications.
Capitals are clean and simple with soft curvature, while lowercase forms keep a handwritten logic (single-storey shapes where expected) and a relaxed, slightly bouncy texture in running text. The design avoids sharp corners and heavy ornament, relying instead on natural stroke variance and rounded joins for character.
