A condensed, hand-drawn text face with lightly irregular, roughened outlines that suggest pen or brush strokes retraced more than once. Strokes show subtle wobble and occasional thick–thin variation, with slightly uneven terminals and small kinks that create a lived-in texture. Forms are mostly upright and narrow, with simple construction and open counters; spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the drawn, non-mechanical rhythm.
Works well where a handcrafted, slightly worn voice is desired—short headlines, poster copy, packaging callouts, pull quotes, and display text for covers or editorial features. The narrow proportions help fit longer phrases into tight spaces while still delivering a distinctive, textured presence.
The overall tone feels informal and human, with a gently distressed, sketchbook energy. It reads as friendly and slightly offbeat rather than refined, adding character and a hint of grit without becoming heavily grungy.
Likely intended to provide a condensed handwritten look that feels authentic and imperfect, mimicking inked lettering with minor inconsistencies and wear. The design prioritizes personality and tactile texture for expressive display typography.
Uppercase letters tend to be tall and streamlined, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, handwritten structure with modest ascenders and descenders. Numerals and punctuation share the same rough edge quality, helping the texture stay consistent across mixed-case settings.
