A slim, monoline handwritten print with tall, condensed proportions and gently uneven rhythm typical of drawn lettering. Strokes keep a consistent thickness with rounded ends and soft joins, and curves are slightly squashed and asymmetrical in a natural way. Capitals are narrow and upright with simple construction, while lowercase mixes compact bowls with notably tall ascenders and long, swinging descenders (especially in g, j, y). Figures follow the same narrow, open style, reading cleanly at larger sizes.
Works well for short headlines, captions, and display text where a casual hand-drawn voice is desired—such as packaging, greeting cards, invitations, posters, and kids-oriented materials. In longer paragraphs it benefits from generous size and leading to preserve its light, narrow strokes and distinctive descenders.
The overall tone feels approachable and lightly quirky, like neat marker or pen lettering used for notes and labels. Its narrow stance and lively descenders add a whimsical, youthful energy without becoming chaotic, keeping the mood friendly and informal.
Designed to mimic tidy, hand-printed lettering with a narrow footprint, balancing legibility with an intentionally informal, personal feel. The consistent monoline construction suggests an aim for friendly display usage rather than formal text typography.
Spacing appears airy for such condensed forms, helping counters stay open in text. The uppercase and lowercase share a consistent hand, and the set favors clarity over flourish, with only modest personality in details like the hooked J and looped descenders.
