A tall, condensed text face with a very light, even stroke and gently bracketed slab-like serifs. Curves are slightly irregular and springy, giving the outlines a hand-drawn quality while remaining upright and consistently proportioned. Counters are narrow and vertical, with pinched joins and rounded terminals that soften the slab structure. The rhythm is airy and vertical, with compact widths and modest letterfit that keeps words slender and lively.
Best suited to display sizes where its delicate strokes and narrow proportions can read clearly—such as book covers, posters, packaging accents, invitations, and brand marks that want a handcrafted, whimsical voice. For longer passages, it works most comfortably in short blocks, pull quotes, or headings with generous spacing and strong contrast against the background.
The overall tone feels playful and offbeat, like hand-lettered titling from a vintage children’s book or a quirky editorial illustration. Its thin, wiry strokes and softened slabs create a friendly eccentricity rather than formality, suggesting charm and personality over strict neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, handcrafted slab-serif flavor: condensed, light, and slightly imperfect to add personality and a nostalgic, illustrative character in headlines and decorative text.
Ascenders and capitals are notably tall, contributing to a stretched, elegant silhouette. Numerals and punctuation match the same lightly irregular drawing, so mixed text retains a consistent handmade texture.
