A tall, spindly handwritten print with monoline strokes and lightly tapered terminals. Letterforms favor simple, open construction with generous counters and a calm, upright stance, while widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph. Curves are drawn with a slightly elastic rhythm (rounds lean toward oval shapes), and straight strokes are slender and clean, giving the face an overall airy texture. Ascenders are prominent and the lowercase sits relatively small beneath them, reinforcing a delicate, vertical silhouette in text.
Best suited to short to medium-length text where personality matters more than dense readability—such as titles, pull quotes, packaging callouts, invitations, greeting cards, and kid-friendly or whimsical editorial. The light stroke and narrow proportions also make it effective for airy compositions and layered graphic layouts.
The tone is lighthearted and gently quirky, like neat hand lettering used for notes, labels, or storybook captions. Its thin, buoyant strokes and slightly uneven widths keep it personable and informal without feeling messy.
The design appears intended to mimic tidy hand-printed lettering with a refined, delicate touch—prioritizing charm, openness, and a gently irregular rhythm for display and expressive text settings.
In the sample text, the face maintains consistent stroke color while showing natural hand-drawn idiosyncrasies in bowls, hooks, and joins. Numerals follow the same thin, upright style, reading clearly while preserving the font’s playful, drawn character.
