A tall, condensed display face with a lightly written, pen-like presence. Strokes are largely monoline with subtle swelling and tapered, flared terminals that give many letters a gently calligraphic finish. The forms favor verticality and open counters, with rounded shoulders and occasional looped or hooked details (notably in letters like J, Q, and y). Lowercase proportions keep the x-height modest relative to long ascenders and descenders, creating an airy rhythm and distinctive silhouette in text.
Best suited to display settings where its tall, slender shapes and terminal flourishes can be appreciated—headlines, titling, pull quotes, and short passages in editorial layouts. It can also work well on book covers, posters, and packaging where a refined, vintage-leaning voice is desired. For long body text, its condensed proportions and distinctive details are likely to be most comfortable at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels cultured and slightly whimsical, balancing old-style charm with a clean, understated stroke. Its narrow, elongated forms read as poetic and theatrical, suggesting period flavor without heavy ornament. The quirky terminal flicks and looped descenders add personality that can feel storybook, boutique, or editorial.
The design appears intended to evoke a formal handwritten or lightly calligraphic sensibility while staying clean and legible through simplified, mostly even strokes. By combining condensed proportions with gentle flaring and a few expressive loops, it aims to provide an elegant display texture with a recognizable, crafted personality.
Capitals are especially narrow and vertical, with simplified interior structure and restrained detailing that stays consistent across the set. Numerals follow the same tall, slim logic, with clear, single-stroke construction and softly rounded turns that keep the texture even. The design maintains a steady baseline and upright posture, while small idiosyncrasies in curves and terminals provide a hand-drawn character.
