A tall, tightly set handwritten print with crisp, high-contrast strokes and a distinctly narrow footprint. Letters are mostly upright with slight, natural waviness, and many forms show sharp, triangular wedge terminals that behave like spiky serifs. Counters are small and vertical, curves are drawn with a light, pen-like touch, and straight strokes often swell into thicker downstrokes, giving the line a lively, inked rhythm. Lowercase shapes are compact with short x-height and long, elegant ascenders and descenders; numerals follow the same narrow, calligraphic construction.
Best suited to display settings where its narrow, high-contrast texture can be appreciated—headlines, short passages, pull quotes, and titling on posters or covers. It can also add personality to packaging and invitations, especially when paired with a simpler text face for body copy.
The overall tone feels whimsical and slightly eccentric, like careful hand lettering for a storybook or theatrical poster. Its spiky terminals and uneven, human rhythm add charm and personality while still reading as a composed, upright print.
The design appears intended to emulate neat, upright hand lettering with expressive contrast and pointed terminals, offering a distinctive, characterful alternative to conventional condensed display faces. It aims to balance readability with idiosyncratic, decorative details for memorable titles and branding accents.
Stroke modulation is pronounced, with thin hairlines that can disappear at small sizes and thicker verticals that anchor the texture. Spacing and proportions vary subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, drawn-by-hand character rather than geometric regularity.
