A condensed, tall display face with monoline strokes and softened, rounded terminals. The letterforms are clean but intentionally irregular in small ways, creating a lively rhythm rather than strict geometric repetition. Counters are generally compact and vertical, with simplified construction in curves and joins and occasional bulb-like ends on strokes. Overall spacing feels even and readable for a narrow design, with clear differentiation between similar shapes across upper- and lowercase and numerals.
Well suited to display settings such as posters, headlines, signage, packaging, and book covers where a friendly, handmade voice is desirable. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes when you want condensed economy without losing personality, but its distinctive rhythm is best showcased at medium to large sizes.
The tone is informal and personable, with a lightly retro, sign-painting flavor. Its narrow, upright stance keeps it direct and legible, while the subtle hand-drawn wobble adds warmth and humor. It reads as approachable and slightly quirky rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-getting handwritten print look that stays legible while adding charm. It balances consistent structure with small, human irregularities to evoke casual lettering suitable for contemporary and retro-leaning display typography.
Capitals are consistently tall and columnar, and the lowercase maintains a steady x-height with minimal slant, giving lines a tidy vertical texture. Several glyphs show gentle asymmetries and soft curves that help avoid a rigid, mechanical feel, especially in rounded letters and numerals. The overall color on the page is strong and dark, suited to short bursts of text where character can be seen.
