A tall, condensed sans with a hand-drawn feel and subtly irregular rhythm. Strokes show noticeable contrast, with heavier verticals and lighter curves and joins, and terminals are mostly rounded or softly blunted rather than sharply cut. Counters are compact and vertical, giving letters a narrow, upright stance, while small asymmetries and varied curve tension keep the texture lively. Overall spacing is moderate for such a condensed design, and the figure set follows the same narrow, high-contrast logic with simple, readable forms.
Best suited to display typography where its condensed width and characterful contrast can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging, labels, and branding wordmarks. It can also work for short bursts of text such as pull quotes or section titles, especially when a playful, handmade tone is desired.
The font conveys an informal, playful tone—like marker or brush lettering cleaned up for typesetting. Its narrow, elastic proportions and gently wobbly stroke behavior create a friendly, quirky personality that feels approachable and slightly retro.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-getting sans with a crafted, human touch. By combining condensed proportions with visible stroke modulation and rounded terminals, it aims to feel expressive and friendly while remaining clean enough for modern display use.
Capitals read as simplified, poster-like shapes with occasional idiosyncratic details (notably in diagonals and bowls), while lowercase maintains a compact, upright structure with a lively baseline feel. Contrast is most apparent where vertical stems dominate, giving words a striped, rhythmic texture at display sizes.
