A tall, condensed hand-drawn print with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are simplified and slightly irregular, with gently wobbly verticals and a lively baseline rhythm that keeps the texture human rather than mechanical. Counters are compact and the proportions run narrow overall, while widths vary by glyph, creating a natural, uneven cadence in words. The lowercase is clean and readable with single-storey forms and minimal detailing, and the numerals follow the same slim, hand-rendered logic.
Well-suited to packaging, café menus, craft and handmade branding, and lighthearted posters where a personable voice is needed. It also works for short headlines, pull quotes, and signage at moderate sizes where its narrow footprint helps fit more characters while staying legible.
The font projects an easygoing, approachable tone with a quirky, home-made charm. Its tall, narrow silhouette and subtle inconsistencies suggest personality and informality, making text feel conversational and lightly whimsical.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly, hand-lettered print look with a compact footprint, balancing readability with an intentionally imperfect, human rhythm. It emphasizes character and warmth over strict typographic precision.
Spacing appears deliberately open for such a condensed design, helping maintain clarity at text sizes despite the narrow proportions. The overall texture stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a cohesive “drawn with a marker” impression without heavy texture or dramatic stroke modulation.
