A narrow, right-leaning handwritten style with lively, marker-like strokes and an inline cut that runs through the letterforms, creating a hollowed, double-stroke impression. Stems are tall and compact, with a short x-height and long ascenders/descenders that give the rhythm a bouncy, vertical feel. Curves are slightly uneven and sketchy, with varied pressure and occasional wobble that reads as intentionally hand-drawn rather than geometric. Spacing is tight and the overall texture is brisk and energetic, with clear, simple constructions for the numerals and capitals.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and social graphics where the inline stroke can be appreciated. It also works well for short quotes, event titles, and branding accents that want an energetic, hand-rendered feel; for longer text, larger sizes and looser leading help maintain clarity.
The inline carve-out and quick, scribbled outlines give the face a playful, informal attitude with a slightly rebellious edge. It feels personal and spontaneous—more like a note written with a pen or marker than a polished display script—while still staying legible at headline sizes.
The design appears intended to capture an improvised handwritten gesture while adding an inline cut to increase contrast and personality. The narrow, slanted forms and tall proportions emphasize speed and expression, aiming for a distinctive, attention-grabbing voice in display settings.
The inline detail adds visual sparkle in larger settings, but also increases interior activity, so the font benefits from generous size and breathing room. The tall, narrow proportions create a strong vertical cadence that can look striking in short phrases and stacked lines.
