A wiry, hand-drawn print style with thin, slightly tapering strokes and a dry, pen-like texture. Letterforms are narrow with lively irregularity: stems wobble subtly, terminals flick and sharpen, and curves feel lightly sketched rather than perfectly geometric. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, creating a natural rhythm, while counters stay open enough to keep the set readable despite the delicate line weight.
Best suited for short-to-medium display text where a handcrafted voice is desirable, such as poster headlines, package labels, café menus, and book or zine covers. It can also work for pull quotes or UI accents when used at comfortable sizes with generous spacing to support its thin strokes.
The overall tone is casual and quirky, with a homemade, storybook feel. Its spindly silhouettes and uneven rhythm convey spontaneity and human presence, leaning more whimsical than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, expressive hand lettering—keeping letterforms recognizable while preserving the small inconsistencies, tapered strokes, and narrow proportions that signal an authentic, drawn mark.
Capitals tend to be tall and narrow with occasional exaggerated verticals, and many characters show slight asymmetry that reinforces the drawn-by-hand impression. Numerals follow the same light, sketchy construction, pairing well with the letters for informal display settings.
