A tall, condensed handwritten print with a consistent, low-contrast stroke that reads like a quick felt-tip or brush-pen sketch. Forms lean slightly and maintain an energetic vertical rhythm, with narrow counters and elongated ascenders and capitals. Stroke endings are softly tapered and occasionally hooked, and curves show small natural irregularities that reinforce the hand-made character. Spacing is relatively tight and variable, contributing to a lively, informal texture in text.
This font works best for short-to-medium text where a friendly, informal voice is desired—such as posters, packaging, café or boutique branding, and social media graphics. Its condensed proportions help fit longer words into limited space, making it effective for headlines, labels, and callouts.
The overall tone is casual and personable, with a slightly quirky, animated feel. Its narrow, upright energy and hand-drawn imperfections suggest spontaneity and approachability rather than formality or precision.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of handwritten print—legible and upright, but intentionally imperfect—to add warmth and personality to display typography while keeping a cohesive, repeatable rhythm across letters and numbers.
Capitals are especially tall and slim, standing out with a poster-like presence, while lowercase shapes stay compact with modest bowls and quick entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same hand-rendered logic, with simple constructions and occasional soft curls that keep the set cohesive.
