A tall, hand-drawn print face with slender strokes and a slightly wobbly baseline. Forms are built from simple, narrow structures with rounded terminals and occasional hooked or flared ends, creating a lightly sketchy, marker-pen feel. Capitals are especially elongated and expressive, while lowercase stays small and compact, producing strong vertical rhythm and noticeable mixed-case contrast. Spacing reads open and a bit uneven in an intentional way, reinforcing the informal, handwritten construction.
Works best for short display copy where its tall, characterful capitals can lead—posters, informal branding, labels, packaging callouts, social graphics, and greeting-card style messages. For longer passages, it’s most effective when set generously with extra leading and spacing to preserve clarity.
The font feels playful and offbeat, like quick lettering for notes, posters, or classroom materials. Its lanky proportions and lively irregularities give it a friendly, improvised tone rather than a polished, corporate one.
The design appears intended to capture quick, human handwriting in a clean, readable print style, emphasizing vertical expressiveness and an approachable, handmade personality over strict geometric consistency.
Distinctive, towering capitals (notably in letters like A, J, Q, V, W, X, and Y) create a strong “headline” presence even at modest sizes, while the small lowercase can appear delicate in dense text. Numerals are similarly narrow and hand-shaped, matching the casual rhythm of the letters.
