A slender, monoline handwritten print with tall proportions and a slightly bouncy baseline. Strokes are smooth and even, with rounded terminals and simple, open counters that keep the shapes airy. Uppercase forms are narrow and elongated, while lowercase mixes compact bowls with long ascenders/descenders, creating a lively rhythm. Overall spacing is light and open, emphasizing a delicate, sketch-like presence rather than typographic rigidity.
Best suited for short display text where its tall, delicate strokes can be appreciated—such as playful headlines, invitations, greeting cards, and branding accents on packaging or labels. It also works well for quotes or pull-lines when set with generous tracking and ample size.
The font reads as informal and personable, with a whimsical, doodled character that feels approachable and a bit eccentric. Its narrow, tall silhouette gives it a gentle, storybook-like charm, suggesting lighthearted notes, labels, and casual headlines.
The design appears intended to capture a neat, hand-drawn print style with a tall, narrow silhouette and a gently imperfect rhythm. It prioritizes charm and individuality over strict geometric consistency, aiming for an approachable, personal voice in display typography.
Distinctive narrow capitals (notably the tall, looped Q and the angular W) add personality in display settings. Numerals are similarly thin and rounded, matching the letterforms’ airy color and keeping the overall texture consistent in mixed text.
