A tall, condensed hand-drawn print with monoline strokes and softly rounded ends. Letterforms are narrow and vertical, with gently irregular curves and a slightly bouncy rhythm that keeps spacing lively without becoming messy. Strokes stay even in thickness, and shapes lean toward simplified, open counters; the lowercase has a single-storey a and g, while the i/j use small circular dots. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright construction, keeping the overall texture consistent in running text.
Well-suited to display uses where an informal, hand-lettered feel is desired—posters, packaging callouts, social graphics, and casual branding. The condensed width also helps in space-constrained headlines or labels where you want a lot of characters without widening the layout.
The tone is light, approachable, and a bit eccentric—like quick marker lettering cleaned up for repeatable use. Its narrow proportions and lively curves give it an upbeat, informal character that feels youthful and conversational rather than polished or corporate.
Likely drawn to capture the immediacy of handwritten print while remaining consistent enough for repeated setting. The design emphasizes a slim footprint, friendly rounded terminals, and a lively baseline rhythm for expressive, readable display typography.
Capitals read as slim, sign-like forms with minimal ornamentation, while the lowercase carries most of the personality through small asymmetries and rounded joins. The condensed fit creates a tight vertical cadence that can look energetic in short lines, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
