A tall, condensed handwritten print with ink-like strokes and gently tapered terminals. Letterforms are mostly unconnected and upright, with subtly irregular curves and occasional hooked or flicked endings that keep the texture lively. The stroke weight stays fairly even overall while showing natural pressure changes, and counters are narrow, contributing to a compact, vertical rhythm. Lowercase forms are small relative to the ascenders and capitals, and the numerals follow the same slim, drawn-by-hand construction.
This font works best where personality is more important than neutrality: display headlines, poster titles, book and album covers, playful packaging, and casual invitations. It can also add character to short pull quotes or labels, especially when set with generous tracking and line spacing to balance the condensed shapes.
The overall tone feels friendly and slightly mischievous, like neat handwriting with a theatrical edge. Its narrow, towering proportions and bouncy details give it a whimsical, storybook personality while still reading as an informal print style.
The design appears intended to mimic a lively, hand-drawn marker or pen print, combining narrow proportions with expressive terminals to create a distinctive display voice. It prioritizes charm and vertical elegance over strict regularity, aiming for readable but characterful typography.
Caps tend to be particularly elongated and theatrical (notably in letters with vertical stems), which creates strong vertical emphasis in headings. The texture is intentionally imperfect and human, so repeated letters won’t look mechanically uniform, reinforcing the hand-rendered feel.
