A tall, condensed hand-drawn print face with monoline strokes and soft, rounded terminals. Letterforms are simplified and slightly irregular in height and curvature, creating a lively rhythm while keeping a consistent overall structure. Curves are narrow and vertical, counters stay small, and joins remain unconnected, giving the alphabet a tidy but sketch-like feel. The numerals match the narrow proportions and maintain the same light, even stroke weight.
Works well for short to medium display copy such as posters, social graphics, packaging callouts, labels, and greeting cards where a friendly hand-drawn voice is desired. It can also serve as a distinctive accent in editorial or branding systems when used sparingly and at comfortable sizes.
The font reads as personable and informal, with a gentle quirkiness that feels handwritten rather than engineered. Its narrow, upright stance and subtle inconsistencies lend it a playful, approachable tone suited to lighthearted messaging.
The design appears intended to capture a neat, handwritten print look—narrow, upright, and lightly imperfect—balancing charm with legibility for attention-grabbing display text.
Capitals are notably tall and streamlined, which helps headings feel vertical and airy, while lowercase retains clear, readable silhouettes at display sizes. Spacing appears slightly loose for the narrow shapes, supporting a relaxed texture in longer lines of text.
