A tall, lightly built roman with a handwritten flavor, showing slim stems, gently tapered terminals, and modest contrast that reads more like drawn strokes than rigid metal type. Curves are softly irregular and slightly asymmetric, giving the letters a natural rhythm while keeping consistent overall structure. Proportions run narrow with generous internal space, and the design mixes rounded bowls with occasional spur-like details and small flares at ends. Numerals follow the same airy, upright construction and maintain a cohesive texture with the letters.
This font works well for short to medium-length text in display contexts such as book covers, chapter titles, posters, packaging, and invitations where a gentle handmade voice is desired. It can also serve for pull quotes or branding wordmarks that want a friendly, crafted presence without heavy ornament.
The tone feels informal and personable—more like neat hand lettering than a formal text face. Its slender, slightly whimsical shapes suggest a quiet charm suited to narrative or craft-oriented settings rather than corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to capture the clarity of a simple serifed roman while retaining the warmth and slight unpredictability of hand-drawn lettering. It prioritizes an approachable, story-friendly texture and elegant tallness over strict typographic regularity.
Spacing appears open enough to keep the light strokes from clumping, but the tall proportions and delicate joins make it feel most at home at moderate to larger sizes where the drawn details remain clear. The overall texture is even and calm, with just enough irregularity to signal a human hand.
