A narrow, high-contrast display face with a hand-drawn print feel, mixing slender hairlines with heavier vertical strokes. Forms are upright with slightly irregular rhythm, and many terminals show gentle flares or teardrop-like endings that suggest pen pressure. Curves are smooth but not mechanical, and proportions vary from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, uneven texture in text. Counters tend to be compact, while ascenders and descenders feel long and expressive, reinforcing a tall, elegant silhouette.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its high contrast and hand-rendered personality can read clearly—such as posters, book covers, product packaging, and editorial headings. It can also work for invitations and crafty branding where a refined-but-informal tone is desired, but is less ideal for dense small-size body copy due to its thin hairlines and busy texture.
The overall tone is playful and slightly theatrical, with a vintage, storybook charm. Its contrast and tapered endings add a touch of elegance, while the informal construction keeps it approachable and characterful rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a handwritten print voice with elevated contrast—combining a casual, drawn quality with a taller, more elegant silhouette for attention-grabbing titles and expressive branding.
In running text, the narrow set and strong vertical emphasis create a distinctive color on the page, with noticeable alternation between thick stems and fine connecting curves. Figures share the same handwritten contrast and tall proportions, giving numerals a decorative, display-oriented presence.
