A tall, condensed letterform set with pronounced stroke contrast: razor-thin hairlines paired with slightly fuller verticals. The construction feels hand-drawn but controlled, with smooth, tapered terminals and occasional soft curves that keep the texture lively. Bowls and rounds (notably in C, O, Q, a, e) are narrow and elongated, and spacing is generally open enough to preserve clarity despite the slim proportions. Numerals follow the same slender, high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and fine entry/exit strokes.
Best suited for display sizes where its hairlines and tall proportions can be appreciated—headlines, poster typography, book or album covers, boutique packaging, and distinctive brand wordmarks. It can also work for short pull quotes or captions when set with generous tracking and sufficient size to maintain the fine details.
The overall tone is refined yet playful—like a whimsical display hand with a fashion/editorial sensibility. It reads as light-footed and slightly eccentric rather than strictly formal, lending a charming, personal voice to short texts and titles.
The design appears intended to deliver a handwritten, print-like personality with an elegant silhouette—prioritizing distinctive rhythm and visual charm over neutral text utility. Its condensed, high-contrast structure suggests a focus on expressive titling and a refined, contemporary-retro feel.
Ascenders and capitals dominate the vertical rhythm, creating a dramatic skyline and a distinctly narrow typographic color. Several glyphs show subtle idiosyncrasies typical of drawn lettering (e.g., curved joins and varying terminal treatments), which adds character while staying cohesive across the set.
