A tall, condensed monoline sans with rounded terminals and a gently irregular, hand-drawn steadiness. Curves are smooth and elliptical, with open apertures and minimal modulation, giving letters a clean, airy interior. Uppercase forms are narrow and vertical, while lowercase keeps simple, single-storey constructions (notably a and g) and long extenders that add a springy rhythm. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded logic, reading cleanly with consistent stroke weight and soft corners.
This font is well suited to short-to-medium text settings where a friendly, distinctive narrow voice is helpful—posters, packaging, labels, and social graphics. It also works nicely for editorial sidebars, pull quotes, and children-focused materials where an informal, approachable sans is preferred.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, combining a neat geometry with a slightly whimsical, human touch. Its narrow, vertical stance feels light on the page, while the rounded endings and playful descenders keep it informal rather than corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-saving sans that remains personable and readable. By pairing narrow proportions with rounded, monoline shapes, it aims to feel contemporary and clean while retaining a casual, slightly handmade character.
Spacing and proportions emphasize verticality, creating an even, column-like texture in text. The font maintains consistent stroke endings across straight and curved strokes, which helps it stay cohesive in both all-caps headings and mixed-case copy.
