A condensed, tall sans with softly rounded corners and subtly uneven, hand-drawn stroke edges. Curves tend toward rounded-rectangle (superellipse) shapes, giving bowls and counters a squarish softness rather than true circles. Strokes show slight modulation and organic tapering, with simplified terminals and minimal constructional detail. Spacing is compact and the overall rhythm is narrow and vertical, with small counters in letters like a, e, and s and a generally restrained x-height relative to ascenders.
Works best for short-to-medium display text where its condensed width and handmade texture can add personality—posters, cover titles, packaging labels, and brand marks. It can also serve for pull quotes and captions when a casual, crafted voice is desired, though the tight counters suggest avoiding very small sizes for long passages.
The overall tone is playful and approachable, with an intentionally imperfect, handmade texture. Its narrow, upright stance adds a tidy, poster-like clarity, while the softened geometry keeps it warm and informal. The result feels suited to lighthearted, whimsical messaging rather than strict corporate neutrality.
This design appears intended to blend simple sans construction with a hand-rendered, gently imperfect finish. The superelliptical curvature and soft corners create a cohesive geometric theme, while the narrow proportions help it fit energetic headlines into limited space without feeling rigid.
Uppercase forms read clean and legible at display sizes, while lowercase shows more idiosyncratic shapes (notably g, j, and y) that emphasize character. Numerals are simple and rounded, matching the same condensed, vertical proportions and soft corners for consistent texture across mixed content.
