A tall, condensed sans with monoline strokes and consistently rounded terminals. Counters are narrow and vertically oriented, giving the alphabet a slim, columnar rhythm, while slight irregularities in curves and joins add a gently handmade feel. Shapes stay simple and legible—round letters are more oval than circular, and bowls and stems keep a clean, even texture across upper- and lowercase as well as the numerals.
Well-suited to headlines and short blocks of copy where a narrow footprint is useful, such as posters, packaging, labels, and display branding. It can also work for UI accents or captions when you want a friendly, condensed voice, though the tight, tall rhythm is most impactful at medium to larger sizes.
The overall tone is approachable and lighthearted, with a subtle retro sign-painting or marker-pen charm. Its narrow proportions feel energetic and efficient, while the rounded ends soften the voice and keep it informal rather than technical.
The design appears intended to provide a space-saving condensed sans that remains warm and characterful. By combining simple monoline construction with rounded terminals and mild handcrafted quirks, it aims to feel personable and informal while staying clean enough for display typography.
In text, the condensed spacing and tall ascenders/descenders create a strong vertical cadence that reads distinctly in headlines. The numerals match the letterforms closely, maintaining the same slim build and rounded finishing throughout.
