A tall, condensed sans with a consistent monoline stroke and softly rounded terminals. The forms are simplified and slightly irregular in a hand-drawn way, with narrow counters and an overall vertical emphasis. Curves are gentle rather than geometric, and several glyphs show subtle asymmetry and bouncy proportions that keep the texture lively. Spacing reads open for such a narrow design, helping the letterforms stay distinct in running text.
Best suited to display use where a tall, narrow voice helps fit more characters into limited width—such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand accents. It can also work for short bursts of copy (taglines, labels, menus) where an informal, friendly tone is desired and the narrow proportions remain comfortable to read.
The font conveys a light, personable tone—informal and approachable with a whimsical, slightly offbeat rhythm. Its narrow, elongated silhouettes feel playful rather than strict, lending a chatty, DIY character to headings and short passages.
The design appears intended to provide a compact, space-saving sans with a hand-drawn warmth, combining clean monoline construction with rounded terminals and gently irregular details to avoid a rigid, mechanical feel.
In the samples, descenders (notably in g, j, p, q, y) extend long and add a rhythmic, loopy baseline movement. Round shapes like O and 0 appear narrow and upright, reinforcing the condensed feel, while the numerals keep the same simple, friendly line quality as the letters.
