A condensed, tall sans with gently irregular contours and a subtly wavy vertical rhythm. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation, with rounded joins and softened terminals that keep the texture friendly rather than mechanical. Counters are generally open and simple, while many verticals and diagonals feel slightly uneven in width and alignment, creating a lively, hand-drawn cadence. Overall spacing is compact and the word silhouette is active, with small deviations in stem straightness and terminal angles contributing to a distinctive texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and brand moments where a personable, distinctive voice is desired. It can also work for short editorial callouts or captions when you want a compact footprint and a lively texture, rather than a neutral reading experience.
The font reads as informal and characterful, with a lighthearted, slightly eccentric tone. Its narrow, tall proportions and fluctuating strokes evoke a whimsical, handmade sensibility that can feel retro or storybook-like without becoming overtly decorative.
The design appears aimed at delivering a condensed sans that stays readable while embracing hand-made irregularity and visible stroke modulation. Its proportions prioritize economy of space and strong word shapes, while the uneven rhythm provides a memorable, human touch.
The contrast and narrow proportions make letterforms feel crisp at display sizes, while the intentionally irregular stroke behavior adds personality and motion to lines of text. Numerals follow the same condensed, slightly uneven style, keeping mixed typography visually consistent.
