A tall, condensed handwritten print with lightly uneven stroke widths and smooth, rounded terminals. Letterforms are mostly unconnected and upright, with a lively, slightly wobbly baseline and gentle overshoots that reinforce the drawn-by-hand feel. Many characters are built from simple vertical stems and narrow bowls, creating a compact rhythm with airy counters and generous sidebearings. Ascenders are long and prominent while the lowercase sits relatively small, and curves are softly irregular rather than mechanically symmetrical.
Best suited for short to medium-length text where personality is a feature: posters, playful editorial headings, quotes, greeting cards, product packaging, and casual branding accents. It can work in larger sizes for maximum character, while its condensed build can help fit punchy headlines into tight spaces.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a whimsical, doodled quality that feels conversational rather than formal. Its narrow, lanky proportions add a touch of quirky personality, making text feel lighthearted and informal.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, quick marker or pen printing—legible and consistent, but intentionally imperfect to preserve an authentic hand-drawn presence. Its condensed proportions suggest a goal of combining friendliness with space-efficient headline setting.
Caps and lowercase share a consistent hand across the set, with occasional idiosyncratic details (like simplified arms, narrow bowls, and looped descenders) that add charm without breaking cohesion. Numerals follow the same tall, narrow construction, staying readable while retaining the handmade irregularities.
