A tall, condensed hand-drawn sans with rounded corners, soft terminal endings, and a consistently heavy stroke. The letterforms are mostly monoline with gentle, organic curvature and subtle asymmetries that keep the texture lively. Counters are compact and vertical, spacing is slightly irregular in a natural way, and ascenders/descenders feel long, giving the font a narrow, stacked rhythm. Dots and small details (like i/j dots and hook-like joins on some lowercase) are simplified and bold, helping the design stay legible at display sizes.
Well-suited for posters, playful branding, packaging, menus, and social graphics where a friendly handmade voice is desired. It works especially well for short headlines, labels, and emphatic callouts, and can also serve for brief body copy at larger sizes when clarity is needed without losing personality.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a humorous, slightly eccentric personality. Its narrow, upright stance reads energetic and animated, like quick marker lettering or a neat hand-print used for emphasis. The feel is informal and conversational rather than corporate or refined.
The design appears intended to mimic confident hand-printed lettering with a clean, repeatable structure. By combining condensed proportions with rounded, simplified strokes, it aims to deliver high-impact readability while maintaining an informal, personable charm.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive, hand-rendered logic, with the lowercase showing more distinctive, characterful shapes. Numerals match the same tall proportions and rounded construction, keeping a consistent color in mixed text. The font’s tight counters and dense stroke weight suggest it will look best with a bit of breathing room in line spacing and not-too-small sizes.
