A narrow serif design with lively, calligraphic construction and gently irregular contours. Strokes show noticeable modulation, with tapered joins and soft bracketing into compact, flared serifs that often feel more like inked terminals than rigid slabs. The rhythm is intentionally uneven: curves swell and pinch, crossbars sit at slightly varied heights, and many letters include subtle hooks or flicks that keep the texture animated. Counters are relatively small and the overall spacing reads tight, reinforcing a tall, vertical silhouette while still maintaining legibility in text.
Best suited to display settings where its idiosyncratic serif details can read clearly—headlines, short subheads, posters, packaging, and brand marks that want warmth and personality. It can work for short editorial pulls or titles, but the busy texture and tight fit make it less ideal for long passages at small sizes.
The tone is playful and slightly eccentric, evoking a storybook or handmade print feel rather than formal editorial polish. Its quirky details and springy proportions give it a friendly, characterful voice with a mild vintage flavor.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif cues with an intentionally hand-rendered, decorative sensibility—delivering a narrow, space-efficient silhouette while adding personality through ink-like terminals, varied curves, and a lightly whimsical rhythm.
Capitals are tall and slender with softly pointed or flared terminals, while lowercase forms lean toward simplified, single-storey constructions (notably in a and g) that enhance the informal, hand-drawn impression. Numerals follow the same expressive logic, with curved tops and lightly hooked endings that keep them consistent with the letterforms.
