A lively, hand-drawn print face with brush-like strokes, subtly uneven contours, and frequent tapered terminals. Letterforms are generally upright with narrow proportions, but widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating an irregular, human rhythm. Strokes show modest contrast from pressure changes, with rounded bowls and slightly wobbly stems; counters are open and simplified for quick readability. Overall spacing feels loose and organic, with small inconsistencies that reinforce the handmade character.
Best suited to short to medium-length text where personality matters more than typographic uniformity—posters, packaging, book covers, event graphics, and editorial headlines. It also works well for greeting cards and playful branding elements, especially when set with generous leading to let the irregular forms breathe.
The font conveys a playful, quirky tone that feels personal and informal, like handwritten titling done with a felt-tip or small brush. Its irregular rhythm and softened forms create a friendly, approachable voice with a slightly mischievous, storybook energy.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of quick hand lettering—imperfect, energetic, and readable—while maintaining enough consistency to function as a coherent font for display use.
Caps have a casual, display-like presence with distinctive, sometimes top-heavy silhouettes, while lowercase maintains the same brushy texture and spontaneous line quality. Numerals follow the same hand-rendered logic, with simplified shapes and slightly varying widths that keep the set cohesive.
