A chunky, hand-drawn print face with rounded terminals and softly irregular curves that mimic marker or brush lettering. Strokes stay generally heavy and even, with only subtle modulation and occasional ink-like bulges at joins and corners. Proportions are loose and slightly bouncy, with wide counters and open apertures that keep forms readable despite the informal construction. The overall rhythm is uneven in a deliberate way—angles wobble, curves aren’t perfectly symmetrical, and widths vary from glyph to glyph—creating a lively, handmade texture.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly, handmade voice is desirable—packaging, posters, stickers, titles, social posts, classroom materials, and casual branding. It works best at display sizes where the organic stroke edges and bouncy proportions can read as intentional character rather than fine detail.
The font reads as approachable and lighthearted, with a playful, conversational tone. Its bold, rounded shapes feel friendly and informal, lending a crafty, kidlike energy without becoming messy or hard to parse.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand-lettered marker/brush printing in a consistent, font-ready form—prioritizing warmth, approachability, and visual charm over strict geometric regularity.
Capitals are simple and sturdy with softened geometry, while lowercase forms keep a casual handwritten logic (single-storey a and g, straightforward r and t) that reinforces the drawn-by-hand feel. Numerals follow the same chunky, rounded construction and remain clear at a glance. In longer text, the texture is energetic and slightly noisy, favoring personality over smooth typographic neutrality.
