A compact, condensed sans with rounded terminals and a largely monoline stroke. Curves are soft and slightly elastic, with gentle irregularities in width and shaping that give the letters a hand-drawn, poster-like rhythm. Bowls tend toward tall ovals, counters stay open for the narrow proportions, and joins are smooth rather than sharp; diagonals and curves show subtle wobble that keeps the texture lively. Numerals follow the same condensed, rounded construction and read clearly at display sizes.
Works best for headlines, posters, packaging, labels, and brand marks where a friendly condensed voice is needed. It suits menus, event graphics, and playful editorial callouts, especially when set with generous tracking or in larger sizes to let the rounded forms breathe.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, with a mid-century, sign-painting feel. Its tight proportions and springy curves create a cheerful, slightly offbeat personality that feels approachable rather than clinical.
Likely designed to deliver a condensed display sans with a warm, human touch—combining simple geometric construction with subtle hand-made irregularity for character and memorability.
The font’s condensed build creates strong vertical emphasis, and the small, rounded details help prevent it from feeling severe. The slightly uneven stroke behavior adds charm but also makes it better suited to short bursts of text than extended reading at small sizes.
