A compact, hand-drawn print style with rounded terminals and a slightly irregular stroke that keeps the texture lively. Letterforms are tall and narrow with a consistent upright stance, while widths vary subtly to create a natural handwritten rhythm. Curves are smooth and slightly asymmetric, counters are small-to-medium, and joins often have a gently pinched, marker-like feel. Descenders and ascenders are long and clean, and the overall color is dense without becoming blotty.
Works best for short-to-medium text where personality is desirable: packaging, café or boutique menus, posters, book covers, and social media graphics. Its narrow proportions make it useful when space is tight, and it performs especially well at display sizes for titles, callouts, and labels.
The font reads as upbeat and approachable, with a whimsical, human presence that feels informal rather than polished. Its narrow, vertical energy gives it a sprightly tone, suitable for lighthearted messaging and characterful branding. The small irregularities add charm and personality while remaining clear and readable.
Designed to deliver a friendly, handwritten print look with a compact footprint and clear letter shapes. The goal appears to be a balance of legibility and charm, using controlled irregularity and rounded strokes to create an inviting, casual voice.
Capitals are simple and monoline-like in structure with softened edges, while lowercase forms lean into handwritten idiosyncrasies (notably in letters with loops and tails). Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded construction and maintain a cohesive, drawn-by-hand consistency across the set.
