A tall, spindly slab-serif with a monoline feel and generous vertical emphasis. Strokes stay consistently thin, with small squared serifs and occasional tapered terminals that add a lightly drawn, pen-like character. The proportions are condensed and high-waisted, with narrow counters and a lively, slightly irregular rhythm that reads intentional rather than mechanical. Curves are narrow and upright, and several forms (notably bowls and diagonals) show gentle asymmetries that give the alphabet a distinctive, handcrafted texture.
Best suited to display use where its tall, characterful forms can be appreciated—headlines, poster typography, book and album covers, packaging, and invitations. It can also work for short pull quotes or signage where a whimsical, handcrafted voice is desired, but the very fine strokes and narrow forms suggest avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is lighthearted and eccentric, evoking storybook titles, boutique packaging, and whimsical editorial styling. Its delicate build and quirky details create a charming, slightly vintage mood without feeling heavy or formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive slab-serif voice with a delicate, hand-drawn sensibility—prioritizing personality and vertical elegance over neutrality. It aims to stand out in titles and branding through narrow proportions, consistent thin strokes, and subtly idiosyncratic detailing.
In text, the tall ascenders and deep descenders create a pronounced vertical cadence, while the thin strokes keep pages feeling airy. Numerals follow the same narrow, lightly ornamented approach, helping headlines and short callouts feel cohesive across letters and figures.
