A wiry, hand-drawn print face with tall proportions and a noticeably uneven, organic rhythm. Strokes swing between hairline-thin and occasional thicker pressure points, with tapered terminals and small hook-like finishes that suggest a pen or brush tip. Letterforms are mostly simple and open, leaning on slender verticals, angular joins, and slightly irregular curves; widths and spacing vary subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a drawn-on-paper feel. Numerals and lowercase follow the same narrow, elongated construction, keeping counters small and silhouettes crisp rather than rounded.
Best suited to short, prominent text where its scratchy texture and tall rhythm can act as a visual theme—posters, titles, packaging callouts, or characterful branding. It also works for moody or whimsical applications (horror, fantasy, indie) where an intentionally hand-rendered voice is desirable, rather than for dense body copy.
The overall tone feels restless and idiosyncratic—expressive without becoming messy. Its spidery lines and sharp terminals can read as eerie or mysterious in display settings, while the handwritten imperfections also give it an approachable, personal character.
The design intention appears to be an informal, hand-lettered print style that prioritizes personality and atmosphere over mechanical consistency. By combining narrow, elongated construction with tapered, pressure-like strokes, it aims to deliver a distinctive, illustrative texture in display typography.
The type relies on silhouette and texture more than uniformity: repeated forms don’t fully match, and baseline/shoulder behaviors feel intentionally inconsistent. In longer lines the distinctive stroke contrast and narrow shapes create a strong vertical cadence, which can be striking but visually busy at smaller sizes.
