A tall, tightly set sans with condensed proportions and a lightly irregular, hand-drawn construction. Strokes stay largely consistent in thickness, but edges and joins show subtle waviness and slight asymmetry that keeps the texture lively. Curves are narrow and upright, counters are compact, and terminals tend to feel clipped or softly tapered rather than geometric. Overall spacing reads tight, with a vertical rhythm that emphasizes height and a slightly uneven baseline/sidebearing feel that adds character.
Best suited for headlines and short-to-medium display text where its condensed width can save space while adding personality. It can work well for posters, packaging, and titles that want a quirky, handcrafted voice; for long body copy, the tight counters and narrow forms may feel dense.
The tone is quirky and informal, with a gentle, handmade wobble that feels playful rather than rough. Its narrow, upright stance and slightly eccentric shapes give it a retro, offbeat personality suited to expressive display moments.
The design appears intended to offer a condensed, characterful sans that feels human and slightly whimsical, prioritizing distinctive texture and vertical emphasis over strict geometric regularity.
The font maintains a consistent condensed silhouette across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping it hold together as a set despite the intentionally uneven details. Numerals follow the same tall, compact logic and read clearly at display sizes, where the small quirks become part of the charm.
