A tall, condensed sans with consistently monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Forms are simplified and lightly irregular, giving a hand-drawn rhythm while maintaining clear, upright construction. Curves are narrow and vertical, counters are compact, and the overall spacing feels airy due to the slim letterforms. Details like the single-storey lowercase shapes and smooth, blunt-ended strokes reinforce an approachable, informal texture.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and packaging where a compact, tall voice helps fit more characters into limited width. It also works nicely for branding, labels, and short promotional copy that benefits from a friendly, hand-drawn feel. For longer text, it will be most effective when set with generous line spacing to preserve its airy rhythm.
The font reads friendly and slightly quirky, with a relaxed, handwritten sensibility that avoids looking messy. Its narrow, upright stance adds a lightly retro, poster-like flavor while staying easygoing rather than formal. The rounded endings and gentle irregularity create a warm tone suited to casual communication.
The design appears intended to provide a condensed display sans with an informal, human touch—combining simple geometry, rounded terminals, and subtle irregularity to feel approachable and characterful while staying legible.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive, streamlined structure with minimal contrast and consistent stroke behavior. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded construction and appear designed for visual harmony in headings and short strings rather than rigid, technical settings.
