A narrow, hand-drawn print face with thick, slightly irregular strokes and visible brush/marker texture at terminals and joins. Letterforms are mostly upright with a gently bouncy baseline and variable character widths, giving the set an organic rhythm. Counters tend to be small and rounded, curves are a bit lopsided in an intentional way, and many terminals end in soft flicks or blunt, inked-off edges. Uppercase is tall and compact, while lowercase is compact with simple, single-storey forms and small dots on i/j; numerals are similarly narrow and sturdy.
Best suited for short display copy where personality matters: posters, headlines, product packaging, labels, social graphics, and craft or event materials. It can also work for pull quotes or brief subheads when you want a compact, hand-lettered feel, but it’s less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes due to the tight, condensed shapes and heavy strokes.
The font reads as informal and handmade, with a lighthearted, slightly mischievous tone. Its condensed, inky presence feels energetic and approachable, like quick lettering done with a felt-tip or brush pen for a poster or note.
Likely drawn to provide a fast, handmade print look with strong contrast in texture rather than strict geometric consistency. The design prioritizes character and immediacy—capturing the feel of brushed marker lettering—while keeping forms recognizable and compact for punchy display use.
Texture and stroke wobble are consistent enough to feel designed rather than accidental, but the set keeps plenty of irregularity for a natural hand-rendered look. The narrow proportions create strong vertical emphasis and can make longer lines feel dense, especially at smaller sizes.
