A delicate, monoline handwritten print with tall proportions and generous vertical reach in the capitals. Strokes are thin and even, with slightly wavering, pen-drawn contours and minimal modulation, giving a light, sketch-like texture. Letterforms are mostly unconnected with simple construction and rounded turns; several capitals lean toward elongated, display-like shapes (notably the narrow, looped forms in letters like B, G, and Q). Spacing feels open and a bit irregular in a natural way, contributing to an informal rhythm in text.
Best suited to short to medium text where a human, informal voice is desired—such as headlines, pull quotes, invitations, greeting cards, and playful packaging or labels. It can also work for posters and social graphics where the tall, airy letterforms can breathe at larger sizes.
The overall tone is playful and personable, like quick notes written with a fine pen. Its lanky forms and loose curves add a slightly eccentric, handmade charm that reads as approachable rather than formal.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of handwritten lettering with a fine-tip pen: light, quick, and slightly irregular, while remaining clear enough for casual reading. Its elongated capitals suggest a focus on expressive titles and display moments rather than dense body copy.
Distinctive, tall capitals create a strong headline silhouette, while the lowercase stays comparatively small and restrained, increasing the sense of vertical contrast between cases. Numerals are similarly thin and rounded, matching the casual, hand-rendered feel.
