A lively, hand-drawn display face with narrow proportions and an uneven, human rhythm. Strokes show moderate contrast with tapered, flared terminals that often end in pointed wedges, giving letters a slightly spiky silhouette. Curves are gently irregular, counters are compact, and verticals tend to feel slightly elastic rather than rigidly geometric. The overall texture is dark and articulate, with a consistent hand-rendered logic across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Works best for display settings such as book covers, posters, event titles, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a handcrafted, narrative feel. It can also suit pull quotes or short blocks of text where character and texture are more important than neutral readability at small sizes.
The tone feels storybook and folkloric—playful yet a little old-world, like lettering from a fairy-tale cover or a hand-inked poster. Its pointed terminals and animated curves add personality and movement, suggesting craft, imagination, and a lightly dramatic flair.
The design appears intended to capture an expressive, hand-lettered print style—combining calligraphic tapering with compact, narrow letterforms to create a distinctive, decorative texture for attention-grabbing typography.
Uppercase forms read as simplified, decorative capitals with subtle calligraphic influence, while the lowercase keeps a friendly, informal flow without connecting strokes. Numerals follow the same tapered-terminal language, helping headlines and short text maintain a coherent, handcrafted voice.
