A tall, condensed handwritten print with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are built from simple, slightly wobbly verticals and gentle curves, giving a lightly irregular rhythm while staying consistently upright. Counters tend to be narrow and open, with minimal detailing and clean joins; overall spacing feels tight and compact, reinforcing the slim silhouette. Numerals follow the same spare, drawn-by-hand construction, with simple forms and subtle asymmetries.
Works best for short-to-medium display text where a personable, hand-rendered feel is desired—such as headlines, posters, labels, invitations, and craft-oriented packaging. It can also suit captions and callouts when you want a lightweight, airy texture that doesn’t dominate the layout.
The font reads as lighthearted and approachable, with a sketchbook informality that feels human and unpolished in a deliberate way. Its narrow, tall proportions add a quirky, slightly whimsical tone, making it feel chatty and youthful without becoming chaotic.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, narrow hand printing: simple monoline construction, upright stance, and a controlled level of irregularity to keep the tone casual and friendly. Its condensed proportions suggest an aim to fit more characters into limited horizontal space while maintaining a distinctive handwritten voice.
Capitals are notably tall and slender, and the design relies heavily on straight stems contrasted with small, rounded bowls and hooks. The overall texture stays even because stroke weight changes are minimal, but the hand-drawn wobble adds character and keeps lines from feeling mechanical.
