A casual hand-drawn print with thick, rounded strokes and a slightly brushy edge. Letterforms are simple and open, with soft terminals, generous curves, and mild irregularities in stroke width and contour that create an organic rhythm. Proportions feel compact with relatively tall ascenders/descenders, and spacing is airy enough to keep the heavy strokes from clogging in short words. Numerals match the informal construction, staying clear and uncomplicated.
Works best for short to medium-length copy where personality is the priority: posters, headlines, packaging callouts, labels, and social graphics. It also suits playful branding elements and informal signage, especially when paired with a clean sans for supporting text.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, like quick marker lettering on a note, menu board, or handmade sign. Its imperfect, lively rhythm reads as warm and human rather than polished or corporate, giving text an easygoing, conversational feel.
Designed to emulate quick, confident marker handwriting in an unconnected print style, prioritizing warmth, immediacy, and legibility over strict geometric consistency. The goal is a bold, friendly voice that feels handmade and energetic in display settings.
Capitals are assertive and rounded, while lowercase keeps a simplified, printed structure with occasional handwritten quirks (notably in letters like g, y, and z). The consistent stroke heft makes it best suited to sizes where the soft detailing and counters can breathe.
