A tall, condensed hand-drawn print style with slender strokes and gently rounded terminals. Letterforms show a slightly wobbly baseline and subtle stroke irregularities that suggest marker or brush-pen drawing rather than geometric construction. Proportions are narrow and vertical, with compact lowercase forms and a relatively small x-height, while ascenders and capitals feel notably elongated. Curves (C, O, S, 3) are smooth but not perfectly symmetrical, and many glyphs have soft, hook-like finishes that add a handmade rhythm.
Well-suited to display use where a friendly handmade tone is desired—children’s and educational materials, artisanal packaging, invitations and greeting cards, and playful poster or social graphics. It can also work for short blurbs or pull quotes when set with comfortable leading to accommodate the tall forms.
The overall tone is informal and lighthearted, with a quirky, storybook quality. Its narrow, tall stance adds a bit of drama and charm without feeling formal, keeping the voice approachable and human.
The font appears designed to capture the immediacy of handwritten print lettering while keeping forms clear and repeatable. Its condensed vertical proportions and gentle irregularities aim to deliver a distinctive, personable voice for expressive display typography.
The design maintains consistent stroke color and a cohesive handwritten texture across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, but preserves natural variation in widths and curvature. Spacing in the sample text reads even enough for short passages, while the distinctive shapes (notably the curved J, looping y, and lively numerals) keep the texture animated.
