A tall, condensed display face with rounded terminals and a lightly irregular, hand-drawn stroke. Each glyph is built from a solid outer stroke that’s split by a thin inner inline, creating a hollowed, double-contour effect that reads like an engraved line running through the letterforms. Curves are soft and narrow, counters are small, and the overall rhythm is airy and vertical, with occasional organic wobble and slightly varied stroke edges that reinforce the drawn quality.
Best suited to headlines, short phrases, and branding moments where a distinctive inline texture is desirable—posters, signage, packaging, and logo wordmarks. It can work for brief subheads or pull quotes, but the condensed forms and interior detailing favor larger sizes and generous tracking for clarity.
The inline carving and narrow proportions give it a vintage sign-painting and poster feel, while the gentle irregularity keeps it friendly and informal. It comes across as lighthearted and crafty rather than strict or corporate, with a quirky charm that suits playful messaging.
Designed to deliver an eye-catching, hand-rendered inline look that evokes engraved or outlined signage. The goal appears to be a compact, vertical display voice with enough irregularity to feel human and crafted while staying consistent across the alphabet and numerals.
In longer text the inline detail remains visible and adds texture, but the tight internal spaces and condensed shapes make it feel most comfortable at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same tall, narrow stance, supporting cohesive headline setting.
