A narrow, hand-drawn serif with a tall, condensed stance and slightly irregular rhythm. Strokes show a brushed/inked feel with gentle modulation and occasional tapering terminals, plus small wedge-like serifs that read as organic rather than engineered. Curves are a bit pinched and angular in places, and counters stay relatively tight, reinforcing the vertical, compact texture. Lowercase forms lean toward simplified, print-like construction with a modest ascender/descender presence and a compact interior space.
Works best for display applications such as headlines, posters, book covers, and packaging where a condensed, characterful serif can create a memorable voice. It can also support short branding lines or pull quotes, especially when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The tone is quirky and storybook-like, mixing a lightly old-fashioned serif presence with casual, hand-rendered imperfections. It feels personable and slightly eccentric—more charming than formal—suited to titles that want character without becoming fully script or cartoon.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-personality serif that mimics hand-inked lettering while remaining readable and systematic enough for repeated use. Its narrow build and lively terminals suggest an aim toward attention-grabbing display typography with a warm, crafted finish.
The design maintains consistent narrow proportions across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, producing a strong vertical cadence in text. Distinctive, slightly flared terminals and uneven stroke edges help it hold attention at display sizes, while the condensed spacing can make longer passages feel dense if set too tightly.
