A tall, spindly handwritten print with monoline strokes and a deliberately uneven, human rhythm. The overall build is condensed, with generous vertical proportions and long ascenders/descenders that create a lanky silhouette. Curves are narrow and lightly rounded, terminals are simple and unembellished, and spacing varies slightly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the drawn-by-hand character. Numerals follow the same thin, upright construction, staying clean and open rather than geometric.
Best suited to short, expressive settings such as headlines, posters, book covers, invitations, and playful packaging where its tall, quirky rhythm can be a feature. It can also work for captions or pull quotes when set with ample line spacing to accommodate the long extenders; for dense paragraphs, its small lowercase and narrow forms may feel delicate.
The font feels whimsical and lightly eccentric—more storybook than formal—thanks to its lanky proportions and subtle irregularities. Its narrow shapes and bouncy vertical emphasis give it a curious, playful tone that reads as friendly and informal rather than loud or aggressive.
The design appears intended to capture a casual hand-drawn print voice with a distinctive tall-and-slim personality. Its consistent monoline construction and intentionally imperfect spacing suggest a font meant to add charm and individuality while remaining legible in display-oriented use.
In text, the tall capitals stand out strongly against the small lowercase, producing a pronounced cap/lc contrast and a slightly sing-song texture. The narrow bowls and tight counters keep the look airy at larger sizes, while the long descenders (notably in letters like g, j, p, q, y) add distinctive character to lines and can increase the need for leading.
