A tall, condensed handwritten print with lively, brush-like strokes and pronounced thick–thin contrast. Forms are mostly upright with a slightly bouncy baseline and variable glyph widths that create an uneven, organic rhythm. Strokes taper into pointed terminals and occasional teardrop-like ends, with modestly rounded bowls and narrow counters that keep the texture dense. The lowercase shows a short x-height relative to the ascenders, helping the alphabet feel vertical and energetic rather than neutral.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where a handmade voice is desirable—headlines, posters, packaging accents, greeting cards, invitations, and social media graphics. It can work for brief passages in larger sizes, but its condensed build and high stroke contrast favor titling and punchy copy over small body text.
The overall tone is casual and personable, like quick marker or brush lettering used for upbeat messages. Its irregularities and springy proportions read as expressive and slightly quirky, lending a nostalgic, hand-drawn charm rather than a polished corporate feel.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-lettered print while keeping letterforms recognizable and readable. The narrow, tall proportions and tapered brush modulation aim to deliver personality and energy with a consistent, cohesive texture across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
In continuous text, the narrow proportions and strong contrast produce a dark, patterned color, while the handcrafted inconsistencies add character at display sizes. The digits follow the same brushy, tapered logic and feel well-matched for informal numbering in headlines or labels.
