A tall, wiry handwritten print with a lightly pressed, mostly monoline stroke that shows subtle tapering and occasional thickened starts/ends. The forms are narrow and vertically oriented, with gently uneven curves and a natural wobble that keeps counters open and shapes airy. Terminals are generally rounded or softly blunted, and the overall rhythm feels hand-paced rather than mechanically even, with small variations in width and spacing across glyphs.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a casual, personal voice is desired—such as posters, packaging callouts, labels, and social media graphics. It can also suit kid-friendly or lighthearted editorial accents and headings where a narrow handwritten print helps fit more characters into tight spaces while staying legible.
The tone is informal and approachable, with a sketchbook simplicity that reads as human and unpretentious. Its narrow, upright stance adds a tidy, slightly whimsical character—more playful than formal—without becoming chaotic or overly decorative.
Designed to deliver a clean, unconnected handwritten look that feels quick and authentic, balancing readability with a charming irregularity. The narrow proportions and restrained stroke give it an economical footprint while preserving the warmth of hand lettering.
Uppercase letters tend toward simple, pared-down constructions, while lowercase maintains clear, readable silhouettes with modest ascenders and descenders. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, staying open and straightforward, which helps the set feel cohesive in mixed text.
