A condensed, hand-drawn print face with tall, narrow proportions and softly irregular outlines. Strokes are thick and slightly textured, with rounded terminals and occasional blobby ink traps that suggest a marker or brush-pen touch. The rhythm is lively and uneven in a controlled way—straight stems wobble subtly, curves are slightly asymmetrical, and widths vary per letter, creating an informal, handcrafted color. Uppercase forms are simplified and upright, while the lowercase keeps compact counters and a small x-height with long, narrow ascenders and descenders.
Best suited to short-to-medium display copy where a handmade voice is desired, such as posters, product packaging, café menus, labels, and cover typography. It can also work for social graphics and titles where compact width helps fit more characters per line while still staying expressive.
The font reads as friendly and mischievous, like quick hand-lettering for a sign or label. Its condensed, inky shapes give it a bold presence without feeling formal, leaning toward a crafty, indie tone with a touch of whimsy.
The design appears intended to mimic casual hand-lettered printing in a condensed footprint, prioritizing personality and punchy texture over strict geometric consistency. It aims to deliver an approachable, handcrafted look that remains readable at display sizes.
In the sample text, the strong vertical emphasis and tight proportions make words stack efficiently, while the textured edges keep the line from feeling mechanical. Numerals follow the same narrow, hand-drawn logic, with a simple, legible, slightly wobbly construction.
