A tall, condensed hand-drawn print with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Forms are simplified and slightly irregular, with gentle wobble in stems and bowls that preserves a consistent rhythm without looking mechanical. Curves are narrow and ovalized, counters are compact, and spacing is relatively tight, giving text a stacked, vertical feel. Capitals and numerals share the same narrow, upright structure, while lowercase maintains clear, readable shapes with modest ascenders and descenders.
Well suited to packaging, menus, labels, and casual branding where a friendly handmade voice is desired. It performs especially well for posters, headlines, short paragraphs, and callouts where the condensed build helps fit more text into narrow spaces while retaining a clear, informal look.
The overall tone is lighthearted and approachable, like quick marker lettering for labels or notes. Its narrow, bouncy rhythm and subtle imperfections add personality without becoming messy, conveying an informal, human presence.
The design appears intended to emulate neat, quick hand-printing—clean enough for readability, but with enough natural variation to feel personal and craft-like. Its condensed proportions suggest a focus on space-efficient display typography that still feels warm and informal.
In longer lines the condensed proportions create a dense texture, while the steady monoline stroke keeps words legible at display-to-subhead sizes. The alphabet shows small, intentional inconsistencies between similar strokes, reinforcing the hand-rendered character rather than strict geometric uniformity.
