A condensed, monoline sans with an intentionally hand-drawn feel and subtly faceted construction. Strokes stay low-contrast and fairly even, but terminals often end in sharp, wedge-like cuts that introduce small angles where you might expect smooth curves. Proportions are tall and slim, with narrow counters and generous verticality; lowercase forms sit relatively low with long ascenders/descenders that create a lively rhythm. Spacing and widths feel slightly irregular by design, adding an organic texture while remaining legible.
Works best for short to medium text where personality is desired: headlines, packaging callouts, café/retail signage, social posts, invitations, and casual branding. The narrow proportions help fit longer phrases into tight spaces while still feeling hand-rendered.
The overall tone is light, informal, and expressive—like quick marker lettering refined into a consistent alphabet. Its angular quirks and skinny stance give it a quirky, modern-craft personality that reads friendly rather than rigid.
The design appears intended to capture the spontaneity of handwritten lettering in a clean, usable sans structure, with faceted cuts adding a distinctive edge. It prioritizes character and rhythm over strict geometric regularity, making it suited to friendly display-driven typography.
Capitals are straightforward and simplified, while the lowercase introduces more personality through looped and hooky shapes (notably in letters like g, j, y) and occasional pointed joins. Numerals follow the same tall, narrow logic, keeping the set cohesive in running text.
