This typeface has a wiry, hand-drawn construction with pronounced stroke modulation and frequent tapered terminals. Proportions run tall and narrow, with relatively small lowercase bodies and long ascenders/descenders that create an airy vertical rhythm. Many forms show lightly flared, spiky serif-like tips and slightly uneven curves, lending a natural, drawn-on-paper irregularity while staying generally consistent in slant and alignment. Counters are open and rounded, and several glyphs feature thin entry/exit strokes that contrast strongly with heavier verticals.
It works best for display-sized settings such as posters, titles, packaging, menus, and invitations where its quirky contrast and narrow, tall proportions can be appreciated. Short-to-medium lines of text can be effective for branding or editorial callouts, while very small sizes may lose some of the fine tapered details.
The overall tone feels playful and a bit eccentric, like lettering made for a storybook, café chalkboard, or whimsical poster. Its sharp little flares and elastic stroke contrast add personality and motion, keeping the texture lively rather than formal.
The design appears intended to capture informal print lettering with a stylized, high-contrast pen feel—combining narrow, elongated forms with expressive, tapered terminals to deliver a distinctive, friendly voice for display typography.
The texture alternates between crisp hairlines and sturdier stems, so spacing and letterfit read as intentionally loose and organic. The numerals and punctuation match the same hand-made logic, maintaining a cohesive, characterful voice across mixed-case settings.
