A compact, condensed sans with softly rounded curves and subtly irregular stroke behavior that gives it a drawn, human rhythm. Vertical stems are slender and consistent, while bowls and shoulders stay open and slightly asymmetric, producing a lively texture in text. Uppercase forms are tall and narrow with simple, geometric construction, and the lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey feel in several letters, supporting a clear, contemporary silhouette. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright proportions with smooth curves and minimal ornamentation.
Well-suited for headlines, short blurbs, packaging, and brand accents where a condensed footprint and a personable voice are useful. It can also work for display-sized captions and social graphics when you want a clean sans impression with a handmade edge, especially in space-constrained layouts.
The overall tone feels approachable and a bit eccentric—more like a neat marker or casual sign lettering than a strictly engineered UI sans. Its narrow proportions and springy shapes add personality and motion, making it read as friendly, modern, and lightly whimsical rather than formal or corporate.
Likely designed to combine the efficiency of a condensed sans with the warmth of hand-influenced drawing. The goal appears to be a readable, contemporary display face that injects character without relying on heavy contrast or decorative detailing.
Spacing appears fairly tight and the condensed letterforms create a strong vertical cadence, which can make lines feel energetic and slightly bustling at larger sizes. The mix of clean geometry with small irregularities helps it avoid looking sterile, while still staying legible.
