A casual, hand-drawn print face with rounded forms, gently uneven stroke edges, and softly blunted terminals. Strokes read mostly monolinear with mild contrast from natural marker-like pressure, and curves are broad and open, keeping counters generous. Proportions are compact with a relatively small x-height and longish extenders; widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating an organic rhythm. Overall spacing feels airy and forgiving, with simplified, approachable shapes and minimal sharp corners.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where warmth and informality are desired, such as children’s materials, casual branding, packaging, invitations, and headline display. It also works nicely for pull quotes, captions, and social graphics that benefit from a friendly handwritten feel.
The font projects an easygoing, upbeat tone—more sketchbook than formal typography. Its bouncy rhythm and imperfect consistency suggest a human voice, making text feel conversational and welcoming rather than authoritative.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, felt-tip hand lettering: readable at a glance while still clearly handmade. Its softened geometry and variable glyph widths prioritize personality and approachability over typographic rigidity.
Capitals are tall and simple, with rounded shoulders and occasional playful asymmetry; lowercase maintains clear differentiation with prominent ascenders/descenders and open bowls. Numerals match the same hand-rendered logic, staying legible while retaining the same soft, slightly wobbly texture across the set.
