A tall, condensed hand-drawn print with irregular stroke modulation and a slightly wobbly baseline rhythm. Letterforms are built from simple, elongated stems and narrow bowls, with occasional brush-like thickening and tapered terminals that create a lively, uneven texture. Curves are soft and somewhat asymmetric, counters are tight, and spacing varies subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an informal, sketched consistency rather than mechanical uniformity.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where personality matters more than strict regularity—headlines, pull quotes, invitations, packaging, and playful editorial accents. It can also work for lightweight body text at larger sizes, especially in projects aiming for a casual, handcrafted voice.
The font reads friendly and offbeat, with a light, homemade charm that suggests doodles, notes, and whimsical signage. Its narrow, lanky proportions add a touch of eccentricity, while the uneven ink feel keeps the tone casual and approachable.
The design appears intended to capture the look of quick, confident hand lettering—tall, compact, and slightly imperfect—while remaining legible across a full basic set of letters and figures. Its condensed build and lively stroke behavior suggest a focus on expressive display typography that still holds together in lines of text.
Uppercase shapes lean toward simplified, poster-like silhouettes, while lowercase forms include distinctive single-storey constructions and loopier details that add character in text. Numerals follow the same narrow, hand-rendered logic, with thin joins and occasional flared strokes that help them feel integrated with the alphabet.
