A tall, condensed handwritten print with a monoline feel and softly rounded terminals. Strokes are consistently heavy and smooth, with gentle tapering at some ends that suggests a marker or brush-pen influence without strong contrast. Counters are compact and oval, and curves are slightly irregular, giving the alphabet a lively, drawn-by-hand rhythm. Uppercase forms are simple and narrow, while lowercase introduces more personality through single-storey shapes and occasional looped descenders; numerals are similarly narrow and softly contoured.
Works best for short to medium-length text where a friendly, handmade voice is desired—such as headlines, posters, product packaging, menus, greeting cards, and kid-oriented materials. The condensed build also helps fit more characters into tight horizontal spaces while maintaining an informal tone.
The font reads as warm and informal, with a cheerful, slightly quirky character that feels approachable rather than polished or corporate. Its narrow, bouncy proportions and rounded finishing give it a lighthearted tone suited to playful messaging.
Designed to mimic neat, handwritten print with a consistent, marker-like stroke and a compact, space-saving width. The goal appears to balance clarity with a personable, crafted feel, keeping letterforms simple while adding subtle irregularities for charm.
Spacing in the samples appears fairly open for such condensed letterforms, helping legibility in longer lines. The narrow construction makes vertical strokes prominent, and the overall texture stays even thanks to the consistent stroke weight and lack of sharp corners.
