A tall, condensed handwritten print with lively, irregular rhythm and pronounced thick–thin contrast. Strokes often taper to fine points, with occasional bulb-like terminals and subtly uneven curves that keep the texture organic. Counters are generally narrow and vertical, and round forms (O, C, G, 0) appear slightly pinched, while verticals dominate many capitals. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, creating a handcrafted, slightly offbeat color in text.
Best suited to short display settings where personality matters—headlines, posters, packaging, book covers, and branding accents. It can also work for pull quotes or short captions when a handcrafted tone is desired, but the narrow proportions and high contrast make it less ideal for long body text.
The font feels playful and characterful, like quick ink lettering for a poster or label. Its narrow, high-contrast forms add a touch of vintage whimsy, reading as casual and expressive rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to capture an ink-drawn, hand-lettered print look with a tall, condensed stance and expressive stroke modulation. Its irregularities and tapered terminals prioritize charm and visual character over strict typographic uniformity.
Capitals present a strong, tall silhouette that can become a distinctive graphic element in headlines, while lowercase shows more idiosyncratic shapes and a notably modest x-height. Numerals echo the same tapered, handwritten logic, with a mix of straight stems and rounded bowls that keeps the set informal.
