A tall, condensed handwritten print with an inked, drawn-by-hand feel and lively irregularity. Strokes show noticeable contrast and slightly uneven pressure, with rounded terminals and occasional tapered entry/exit strokes that mimic a marker or brush pen. The letterforms are narrow with tight interior counters, a compact lowercase proportion, and a somewhat bouncy baseline rhythm that adds motion without becoming fully cursive. Capitals are similarly slim and simplified, and the numerals follow the same narrow, hand-rendered construction for a consistent overall color.
Best suited to short, expressive text such as headlines, poster lines, packaging callouts, greeting cards, and playful branding. It also works well for children’s or educational materials where a friendly, hand-lettered voice is desirable, especially at larger sizes where the stroke contrast and narrow counters stay clear.
The tone is casual and personable, reading as quirky and lighthearted rather than formal. Its narrow, tall shapes and hand-drawn wobble give it a storybook or crafty personality that feels approachable and a bit eccentric.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of casual hand lettering in a compact, space-saving width while keeping an upbeat, approachable voice. The mix of narrow proportions, high-contrast strokes, and intentional irregularities aims to feel human and crafted rather than mechanically uniform.
Spacing appears naturally irregular in a deliberate way, reinforcing the handmade character; some glyphs show subtle asymmetry and playful idiosyncrasies (notably in curved letters and looped forms). The condensed build creates strong vertical rhythm, which can feel energetic in headlines but may look busy in dense text blocks.
