A tall, condensed hand-drawn sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are simplified and slightly irregular, with a gentle wobble that keeps the rhythm lively while staying consistently upright. Curves are narrow and elongated, counters are small and vertical, and joins often feel drawn in a single motion, giving many glyphs a subtle hook or loop. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded construction and read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited to short display text where a friendly, handmade voice is desired—posters, packaging callouts, social media graphics, invitations, and playful branding. It can also work for brief subheads or captions when you want a casual tone, though the condensed proportions favor larger sizes over extended reading.
The overall tone is lighthearted and personable, like neat marker lettering with a hint of whimsy. Its narrow proportions and bouncy shapes make it feel energetic and informal without becoming chaotic.
The design appears intended to mimic tidy, hand-printed lettering with a narrow footprint, balancing charm and legibility. It prioritizes a consistent, drawn-by-hand feel and compact word shapes for attention-grabbing display settings.
Capital forms are especially tall and streamlined, and several lowercase letters show distinctive handwritten gestures (notably looped descenders and curved entry/exit strokes). Spacing appears moderately open for such a condensed design, helping keep words readable in short bursts.
