A tall, condensed handwritten print with smooth, monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. The letterforms have a bouncy rhythm and slightly irregular contours that feel drawn rather than constructed, while staying consistent enough for continuous reading. Ascenders are prominent and the lowercase has a small, compact core, giving words a vertical, airy texture. Curves are narrow and upright, counters stay simple and open, and the numerals follow the same slim, hand-rendered logic.
Well suited to friendly headlines, packaging, labels, and craft-oriented branding where a personable handwritten voice is needed. It also works for children’s materials, event invitations, and short-to-medium text blocks that benefit from a casual, whimsical tone.
The overall tone is cheerful and approachable, with a lightly quirky personality that reads as informal and human. Its narrow, tall proportions add a gentle sense of whimsy and motion, making text feel conversational rather than formal or technical.
Likely designed to capture the look of neat, hand-drawn marker lettering in a condensed format—adding personality and warmth while fitting longer words into tight spaces.
The font’s character comes from subtle stroke wobble, slightly varied widths in curves and stems, and occasional asymmetry in bowls and joins. Despite the handmade feel, spacing and proportions appear controlled, keeping paragraphs legible while retaining a sketch-like charm.
