A hand-drawn print style with narrow proportions and a lively, slightly irregular rhythm. Strokes show a brushed/marker-like texture with subtle tapering and occasional thickened turns, giving moderate contrast without looking formal. Curves are rounded and elastic, while verticals stay fairly straight, creating an upright, legible silhouette. Letterforms vary a bit in width and stroke finish, with small inconsistencies in terminals and joins that read as intentional, adding personality while remaining readable in words and short lines.
Best suited to display use where a casual, human touch is desired—posters, cover titles, product packaging, café-style signage, and social graphics. It can also work for short paragraphs in larger sizes where the textured strokes and narrow forms have room to breathe.
The overall tone feels informal and personable, like quick handwritten signage or notes made with a felt pen. Its slight wobble and textured stroke edges add charm and spontaneity, keeping the mood light and approachable rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears aimed at capturing an authentic hand-lettered print look—upright and readable, but with enough irregularity, taper, and texture to feel drawn in real time. It prioritizes personality and immediacy over strict geometric consistency.
Capitals are tall and attention-grabbing, while lowercase keeps a compact feel; the numeric set matches the same loose, hand-rendered energy. Spacing appears moderately open for a handwritten face, helping legibility despite the narrow build. The texture is most noticeable at stroke ends and in curved letters, where the pen pressure effect reads clearly.
