A delicate, hand-drawn print style with mostly monoline strokes and frequent hairline flicks that create sharp, spiky terminals. Proportions are narrow and tall, with generous ascenders and descenders and a notably small lowercase core, producing a lot of vertical animation. Curves are slightly wobbly and irregular in a natural pen-drawn way, and bowls and counters vary subtly from letter to letter. Crossbars and arms are light and sometimes asymmetrical, and the overall spacing feels loose and uneven by design, reinforcing the informal, handwritten rhythm.
Best suited to short to medium-length display use where its delicate, hand-rendered character can be appreciated—posters, covers, invitations, packaging accents, and social graphics. It can also work for pull quotes or headings in editorial layouts when paired with a sturdier text face for body copy.
The font reads as lighthearted and improvisational, with a quirky, storybook tone. Its thin, scratchy finishing strokes and uneven forms add a sense of spontaneity and charm rather than polish. Overall it feels friendly and idiosyncratic, like quick notes or hand-lettered headings.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, expressive handwriting in an unconnected print style, prioritizing personality and motion over strict geometric consistency. Its narrow, tall forms and lively terminals suggest a goal of creating an airy, whimsical texture that feels human and informal.
In running text the thin strokes and wiry terminals can visually sparkle, especially around letters with long entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic with simple, open shapes and occasional flourish-like ends, keeping the set cohesive.
