A slender, hand-drawn print face with mostly monoline strokes and subtly rounded terminals. Letterforms are tall and airy with generous ascenders and a notably small x-height, creating a high-waisted rhythm where lowercase sits low and verticals dominate. Curves are smooth but slightly irregular, with occasional looped joins and soft hooks (notably in letters like g, j, y), while capitals keep simple, open constructions. Spacing and widths feel organically varied, reinforcing a drawn-by-hand consistency rather than rigid geometric uniformity.
This font is well-suited to short-to-medium display text such as headlines, posters, invitations, greeting cards, and playful packaging. It can also work for children’s or storybook-style captions where an informal, hand-lettered voice is desired, while longer text may require comfortable sizing due to the tall proportions and small x-height.
The overall tone is lighthearted and friendly, with a gentle, whimsical wobble that reads as personal and approachable. Its tall, delicate silhouettes and looping details give it a storybook or crafty feel, suggesting informality without looking messy.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, unconnected hand-printing with a lightly whimsical flair—tall proportions, simple constructions, and just enough irregularity to feel human. It prioritizes charm and approachability over strict typographic precision, aiming for a distinctive handwritten voice in display contexts.
Capitals tend to be clean and open with understated personality, while the lowercase carries more of the charm through loops, teardrop-like bowls, and springy descenders. Numerals match the same thin, drawn stroke and appear legible at display sizes, with a casual, handwritten cadence.
