A tall, condensed handwritten print with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms show gentle, pen-like irregularity in curves and joins, with occasional asymmetry that keeps the rhythm lively. Proportions are narrow and vertically oriented, with small lowercase counters and a relatively compact x-height compared to the ascenders. Numerals and capitals maintain the same drawn quality, with slightly varied widths and subtly uneven stroke endings that read as intentionally human rather than mechanical.
This font suits short-to-medium display settings where a personable, handmade voice is desirable—such as posters, packaging, invitations, and editorial headlines. Its condensed shape helps fit longer words into narrow spaces while still reading clearly at larger sizes. It can also work for brief captions or pull quotes when a casual, human tone is preferred over strict neutrality.
The overall tone is approachable and informal, with a quirky, storybook-like charm. Its narrow, upright stance gives it a neat footprint while the hand-drawn wobble adds warmth and personality. The result feels friendly and lightly whimsical rather than formal or corporate.
The design appears intended to capture the feel of neat hand lettering in an unconnected print style, balancing legibility with visible human variation. It emphasizes a compact, vertical silhouette and simple monoline construction to stay clean in display use while retaining an expressive, drawn personality.
Spacing appears moderately tight in running text, and the condensed forms create a strong vertical cadence. Curved letters and bowls show a consistent soft tension, while straight strokes remain clean but not rigid, reinforcing the hand-rendered character.
