A tall, condensed monoline sans with consistently rounded terminals and a lightly organic stroke that feels drawn rather than engineered. Curves are soft and open, and joins are simple, giving the letters a clean, uncluttered silhouette. Uppercase forms are narrow and vertical, while lowercase shows a compact x-height with long ascenders and descenders, creating an elegant, stretched rhythm. Numerals follow the same slim, rounded construction, with generous interior space and a light overall color.
Best suited to display typography where its slim, tall proportions can shine—headlines, short copy, posters, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a light, friendly presence. It also works well for pull quotes and UI or editorial accents when used at sufficiently large sizes.
The tone is gentle and approachable, with a whimsical, slightly retro personality. Its thin, rounded forms read as refined yet informal, lending a friendly voice without becoming decorative. The condensed verticality adds a poised, airy sophistication that works well when you want quiet character rather than bold emphasis.
The font appears designed to offer a minimal, contemporary sans foundation with added warmth from rounded terminals and subtly hand-drawn construction. Its condensed, vertical proportions suggest an intention to fit more characters into a line while keeping a graceful, lightweight texture.
The design maintains a consistent, narrow footprint across the set, helping text look orderly even at larger sizes. Rounded endings and open counters keep the shapes from feeling brittle despite the light stroke, and the overall spacing appears comfortable for display settings.
