A tall, condensed sans with lightly irregular construction and a hand-drawn feel. Strokes show subtle modulation and uneven edges, with occasional tapered terminals and sharp, wedge-like joins that create a slightly spiky silhouette. Curves are narrow and upright, while widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing a lively, non-mechanical rhythm. Counters are tight in letters like O/Q and in numerals, and diagonals (V/W/X) are crisp and narrow, reinforcing the vertical, compact texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and book or album covers where a compact, characterful sans can add personality without relying on serifs. It can also work for short brand marks and labels where tight spacing and a tall silhouette help fit more text into limited width, though it is most effective at display sizes.
The font reads as quirky and playful, with a vintage, offbeat energy reminiscent of mid-century display lettering. Its gentle irregularities and narrow proportions give text a spirited, slightly mischievous tone rather than a strictly neutral one.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive condensed display voice—clean enough to read quickly, but deliberately irregular to feel human and expressive. Its narrow, upright structure and pointed details suggest a goal of strong vertical presence and memorable texture in titles and branding.
The uppercase set appears especially tall and compressed, which increases impact in short phrases. The lowercase shows distinctive, simplified forms with narrow bowls and compact counters, helping maintain a consistent, vertical color in running lines. Numerals follow the same condensed logic, with upright forms and tight apertures that visually match the alphabet.
