A condensed, monoline sans with softly rounded terminals and a gently irregular, hand-drawn steadiness. Strokes maintain an even weight with minimal modulation, while curves are built from simple, rounded forms that stay open and readable. Proportions are tall and narrow with generous internal counters, and the overall spacing feels light and breathable in text. Small details—like subtly varied curve tension and slightly softened joins—add warmth without turning into decorative flourish.
It performs best in short to medium-length settings where its tall, narrow rhythm can add personality—headlines, posters, packaging, and brand accents. It also suits social graphics and light editorial callouts where a friendly, compact sans is desired.
The font conveys an approachable, informal tone that feels human and relaxed while remaining tidy and legible. Its narrow, airy rhythm gives it a light, modern friendliness—more conversational than corporate, and more playful than strict.
The design appears intended to offer a simple, condensed sans with a subtle hand-made warmth, balancing straightforward construction with gentle irregularity for a more personable voice.
Distinctive, narrow capitals and rounded bowls create a consistent vertical cadence across lines. Numerals follow the same slim, rounded logic, keeping the set cohesive for mixed alphanumeric use.
