A condensed, tall sans with a hand-drawn feel and gently uneven rhythm. Strokes are mostly monolinear with subtle modulation, and terminals tend to round off rather than end in sharp cuts. Curves are narrow and upright, with slightly irregular bowls and counters that give letters a lively, organic texture. The lowercase is compact with short ascenders and a relatively small x-height, while capitals read lanky and vertical; overall spacing is tight and the word shapes feel animated and slightly wobbly without becoming messy.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display text such as posters, packaging callouts, event flyers, and brand accents where a playful voice helps. It can work for captions or short passages at comfortable sizes, but the condensed forms and lively texture are most effective in headings and highlighted phrases.
The font communicates an informal, playful tone—more friendly and quirky than technical or corporate. Its narrow, buoyant forms and imperfect geometry evoke marker or brush lettering adapted into a clean sans structure, making text feel personable and approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver a narrow, space-saving display sans with a handcrafted flavor, balancing legibility with a deliberately quirky rhythm. It aims to feel spontaneous and friendly while keeping letterforms simple and upright for straightforward reading.
Distinctive narrow ovals in letters like O and 0, and a generally vertical stress, reinforce the slim silhouette. Several glyphs show mild baseline and curve irregularities that contribute to character, so it reads best where personality is desired over strict uniformity.
