A tall, condensed sans with softly squared, superellipse-like curves and subtly uneven outlines. Strokes keep a steady overall weight with gentle modulation, and many terminals end bluntly with rounded corners, creating a slightly inked or stamped edge. Counters are narrow and vertical, spacing is compact, and the rhythm feels intentionally irregular—especially in straights that bow a touch and curves that don’t repeat perfectly. Figures and lowercase follow the same narrow, upright construction, with simple, utilitarian forms and minimal ornament.
Best suited to display work where its condensed, hand-touched character can be seen—posters, headlines, packaging, and bold brand accents. It can work for short paragraphs or pull quotes when given enough size and tracking, but it’s most effective in titles and expressive, high-impact settings.
The tone is quirky and human, like lettering made with a marker or a lightly distressed rubber stamp. Its narrow, tall stance adds urgency and attitude, while the softened corners keep it approachable. Overall it reads playful and slightly gritty rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-saving headline voice with a deliberately imperfect, analog finish. By combining narrow proportions with rounded-rectangle geometry and slightly rough edges, it aims for a distinctive, approachable personality that stands out in contemporary and retro-leaning layouts.
Round letters such as O/C/G lean toward squarish ovals, reinforcing the rounded-rectangle skeleton. Joins and inner corners show small inconsistencies that add texture at display sizes, while long verticals and tight apertures can make dense text blocks feel dark if set too small or too tightly.
