A tall, tightly set display face with markedly condensed proportions and dramatic thick–thin contrast. Strokes alternate between dense, inky verticals and hairline connectors, creating a lively, hand-rendered rhythm. Terminals tend to be tapered or slightly flared, with occasional sharp hooks and spur-like details that add a scratchy, expressive edge. Letterforms are mostly upright but intentionally irregular in width and stroke placement, giving the alphabet a drawn-on-paper consistency rather than mechanical uniformity.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing text where its tall, high-contrast shapes can be appreciated—headlines, poster titles, cover typography, and distinctive branding or packaging. It can add personality to pull quotes or section headers, especially when used at larger sizes where hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone feels playful and slightly eccentric—like a whimsical headline style from vintage packaging or a storybook title. Its high-contrast, spindly joins and tall silhouettes read as theatrical and characterful rather than restrained or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic a quick, expressive marker or brush-pen print style while maintaining a strong vertical silhouette for display use. Its condensed build and exaggerated contrast suggest a goal of maximizing personality and impact in limited horizontal space.
Counters are often narrow and vertically stretched, and spacing can feel springy because some glyphs resolve into hairline strokes while others end in heavier blobs. The numerals follow the same tall, contrasty construction, with notably thin curves and heavier stems that keep them visually aligned with the letters.
