A stylized sans with sharp, tapered terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes often narrow to needle-like points, creating a chiseled, cut-pen feel even where forms remain largely unbracketed and serifless. Bowls tend toward clean ovals and near-circles (notably in O/o and 0), while many joins and verticals show subtle irregularity and slight flare, producing an organic rhythm. Proportions are moderately narrow-to-standard overall, with lively width changes across letters; counters stay fairly open and the texture reads light and crisp at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines and short text where its delicate contrast and pointed terminals can be appreciated—posters, book covers, boutique branding, and packaging. It can work for brief pull quotes or UI accents at larger sizes, but the fine hairlines suggest avoiding very small settings or low-resolution output.
The overall tone is playful and slightly eccentric, mixing refinement with a hand-made edge. Its spiky terminals and elegant curves evoke a fantasy or storybook mood, while still feeling clean enough to read as a contemporary, stylized sans.
The design appears intended to provide a distinctive, high-contrast sans voice that feels hand-influenced and expressive, offering a decorative alternative to neutral grotesques. Its mix of rounded bowls and sharp tapers aims to create memorable word shapes and a lively, slightly fantastical presence.
Distinctive details include looped or hooked descenders (e.g., g, j, y) and occasional angled, knife-like diagonals (notably in K, V, W, X). Numerals follow the same tapered logic, with a particularly round 8 and a slender, curving 2/3 that reinforce the decorative character.
