A tall, slanted handwritten print with a monoline stroke and quick, pen-like construction. Forms are narrowly proportioned with long ascenders/descenders, compact lowercase bodies, and a lively baseline that gives lines a slightly bouncy rhythm. Curves are open and lightly looped, while joins and terminals often end in brisk flicks or tapered hooks; capitals are simple, linear, and slightly irregular in width, enhancing the natural hand-drawn feel. Numerals follow the same narrow, gestural logic, keeping stroke weight consistent and shapes clean rather than ornate.
Works well for short, expressive copy where a personal voice is desired—packaging callouts, poster headlines, social graphics, quotes, invitations, and branding accents. It’s most effective at display sizes where the narrow proportions and long extenders can be appreciated without crowding.
The overall tone feels informal and conversational, like fast note-taking or a personal label written with a fine-tip pen. Its narrow, upright energy reads light and upbeat, with just enough quirk in the loops and flicked terminals to feel playful without turning decorative.
Designed to mimic quick, natural handwriting in an unconnected print style, prioritizing spontaneity and approachability over strict geometric regularity. The narrow build and consistent stroke aim to keep the texture light while maintaining legibility in short-to-medium phrases.
The font’s rhythm comes more from stroke direction and spacing than from weight changes, so texture stays even in paragraphs. Distinctive long extenders and compact lowercase can make mixed-case lines feel tall and airy, especially at larger sizes.
