A narrow, hand-drawn print face with thin, slightly scratchy strokes and softly irregular outlines. Letterforms are mostly upright with uneven stroke terminals, occasional wobble in verticals, and subtle baseline bounce that reinforces a drawn-on-paper feel. Counters tend to be small and slightly lopsided, curves are pinched rather than perfectly round, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, giving the set a lively, imperfect rhythm. Numerals and punctuation follow the same wiry, uneven construction, keeping texture consistent in text.
This font is best used where a handmade imprint is desirable: titles, short passages, pull quotes, and display copy on posters, book covers, and product packaging. It can also work well for themed labels and signage where texture and personality matter more than strict typographic regularity.
The overall tone is informal and human, with a rustic, slightly eerie storybook character. Its rough ink texture and idiosyncratic shapes read as handcrafted and expressive rather than polished, lending a quirky, vintage mood.
The design appears intended to simulate a lightly inked, hand-rendered print style with natural wobble and roughened contours. Its goal is to add personality and tactile texture to display typography while remaining legible and upright.
At text sizes the irregular edges create a visible grain across lines, while the narrow proportions help longer words fit compactly. The uppercase has a simple, printlike construction, while the lowercase and numerals show more variation in stroke flow, contributing to the font’s playful inconsistency.
