A tall, spidery display face with very slender verticals, sharp joins, and crisp, hairline terminals. Stroke contrast is pronounced, with thin horizontals and curves paired against darker, inkier stems, creating a lively, uneven rhythm across words. Counters are narrow and often vertically emphasized; rounds like O/Q show eccentric inner strokes and off-center tension, reinforcing an intentionally handmade feel. Lowercase forms are compact with modest bowls and a noticeably small x-height relative to ascenders, while numerals and capitals keep the same elongated, poster-like proportions.
Best suited for display settings such as posters, headlines, packaging, and cover typography where its tall proportions and quirky details can be appreciated. It can add personality to invitations, captions, and short promotional lines, but the delicate hairlines suggest using it at sufficiently large sizes and with ample contrast against the background.
The overall tone is quirky and lightly theatrical—more storybook than formal—suggesting hand-lettered personality with a slightly mischievous edge. Its thinness and high contrast give it an elegant fragility, while the irregular details keep it informal and expressive.
The design appears intended to evoke hand-drawn, print-style lettering with an expressive, narrow silhouette and a touch of eccentricity. It prioritizes personality and vertical drama over neutrality, aiming to create a distinctive, illustrative voice in titles and short text.
Several glyphs feature idiosyncratic interior strokes (notably O/Q), and the mix of rigid verticals with wiry diagonals produces a jittery, animated texture in running text. Spacing reads tight and vertical, so the font’s character is most apparent at larger sizes where the hairline features can remain visible.
