A tall, tightly set handwritten print with slim proportions and lively stroke contrast. Strokes feel ink-drawn, shifting between hairline curves and thicker verticals, with rounded terminals and occasional teardrop-like finishes. The rhythm is slightly irregular in width and spacing, giving a hand-rendered bounce while maintaining clear, upright structure. Bowls and counters are narrow and vertical, and the overall silhouette reads as slender and elongated across both capitals and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines and short text in posters, packaging, and branding where a handcrafted, eccentric voice is desired. It can work well for book covers, café menus, and playful editorial pull quotes, especially when set with generous tracking to let the narrow forms breathe.
The font conveys a friendly, quirky personality with a lightly vintage, storybook sensibility. Its narrow, springy forms and inky contrast create an expressive tone that feels informal and characterful rather than strict or technical.
Likely intended to provide a distinctive, hand-inked display texture that stays legible while adding personality through narrow proportions, contrasty strokes, and subtly uneven rhythm.
Uppercase forms include simplified, monoline-like constructions punctuated by heavier stems, while lowercase introduces more calligraphic quirks such as looped descenders and a distinctive, rounded “g.” Numerals keep the same tall, drawn feel, with open curves and thin joins that emphasize the condensed verticality. The design is most comfortable at display sizes where its delicate hairlines and idiosyncratic shapes remain clear.
