A closer look at Hand-drawn / Doodle

A page from someone's actual notebook is the whole idea behind Hand-drawn: wobbly marker outlines, scribbled stars, arrows pointing at the bits that matter. The effect is disarming — a change request that looks thought through by hand rather than assembled by committee.

The page sits on ruled or dot-grid paper, with a loose handwritten display face doing the shouting in headings while a clean, legible sans carries the reading copy underneath. Doodled stars, arrows and hand-circled figures scatter through the margins, standing in for the underlining a person would actually do.

A detail from the Hand-drawn / Doodle example

Friendly, informal and creative brands — studios, educators, small makers — get the most out of Hand-drawn, and so does any change request where a bit of humanity matters more than polish. Reach for it when the relationship is closer than a typical client one, and formality would work against the message.

The doodles earn their place by working, not just decorating: an arrow pointing at a figure or a circle around a date does the job a highlighter would, guiding the eye without a single extra sentence of explanation. That is what keeps the change request playful without becoming careless.

None of the doodling here is generic clip art standing in for a real identity. Ask Waxe for a change request in this style and the sketchbook voice is redrawn around the reader's own brand — their colours, fonts and logo — then handed back ready to export.
