A tall, wiry hand-drawn print with slightly uneven stroke edges and a lively, irregular rhythm. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with long ascenders and descenders and compact lowercase bodies that make the x-height feel small against the overall height. Strokes stay fairly consistent in thickness, while terminals often taper or flick into sharp points, giving many characters a calligraphic, pen-like finish. Counters are generally open and simple, and widths vary from glyph to glyph in a natural, handwritten way.
Best suited for display contexts such as book covers, posters, short headlines, and packaging where a hand-drawn, whimsical personality is desirable. It can also work for children’s or fantasy-adjacent branding and signage, especially when set with generous spacing and at larger sizes to preserve the delicate, narrow strokes.
The font reads as playful and characterful, with a lightly eccentric, storybook tone. Its narrow, spiky endings and bouncy spacing create an informal voice that can feel curious, mischievous, or magical without becoming messy.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, confident handwritten print with a slightly dramatic vertical emphasis. Its goal seems to be adding personality and narrative charm through narrow proportions, pointed terminals, and subtle irregularities rather than typographic neutrality.
Uppercase forms have a distinctive, slightly theatrical silhouette (notably in letters like Q, R, and W), while the lowercase stays simple and legible at display sizes. Numerals are similarly narrow and hand-rendered, matching the font’s tall proportions and casual texture.
