A lively, hand-drawn print face with rounded forms, narrow proportions, and a noticeably brushy stroke that swells and tapers. Terminals are soft and slightly blunted, with small wobble and uneven edges that keep the texture organic. Counters are open and simple, spacing is loose and inconsistent in an intentional way, and the overall rhythm feels bouncy rather than rigidly aligned. The lowercase is compact with relatively small bodies and prominent ascenders/descenders, while capitals stay straightforward and readable with a casual, marker-like construction.
Works best for short-to-medium display settings where a handmade tone is desired: packaging, posters, playful branding, children’s materials, and craft or DIY-themed graphics. It can also suit casual social graphics and invitations, especially when paired with a clean sans for supporting text.
The tone is informal and upbeat, leaning toward a kid-friendly, sketchbook feel rather than polished editorial typography. Its irregular stroke and slightly goofy proportions give it a personable, approachable voice suited to lighthearted messaging. The texture suggests quick, confident handwriting rendered as unconnected print letters.
The design appears intended to capture the spontaneity of hand lettering in a consistent, usable font: casual, readable, and full of small imperfections that add warmth. Its narrow footprint and high-contrast brush behavior aim to keep text lively while remaining legible at display sizes.
Distinctive quirks—like rounded bowls, simplified joins, and occasional asymmetry—help it feel authentic and human. Numerals share the same soft, drawn quality, with single-storey shapes and gentle curves that match the letters.
