A tall, condensed hand-drawn print with mostly monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are simplified and slightly irregular, with subtle wobble and stroke texture that reads like a marker or brush pen. Counters are compact, curves are gently squashed, and verticals dominate, giving the alphabet a narrow, upright stance. Spacing and widths vary a bit from glyph to glyph, creating an uneven, organic rhythm while staying legible across the set.
Best suited to display settings where personality matters—posters, titles, packaging, and branded messaging that benefits from a handmade voice. It can also work for short reads (captions, pull quotes) when set with comfortable tracking and generous line spacing to accommodate its condensed forms and irregular rhythm.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, with a quirky, storybook feel. Its imperfect outlines and bouncy proportions suggest something human and spontaneous rather than engineered, lending a lighthearted, crafty personality to headlines and short passages.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, confident hand lettering in a condensed footprint, balancing charm and readability. It prioritizes a casual, human presence over geometric precision, making it useful when a warm, artisanal tone is desired.
Distinctive features include compact bowls on B/P/R, a simple single-storey "a" and "g", and numerals that keep the same condensed, hand-rendered energy. The texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping mixed-case text feel cohesive even with the natural variation.
