A condensed sans with an intentionally uneven, hand-cut feel. Strokes show subtle tapering and slight wobble, with softened corners and occasional wedge-like terminals that keep the rhythm lively rather than mechanical. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing a mixed-width cadence; bowls are compact, counters stay fairly open, and round forms like O/0 read slightly oval. Uppercase has a tall, narrow stance, while lowercase appears smaller with short extenders and a modest, compact body, contributing to a slightly top-heavy texture in words.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where personality is the goal: posters, headlines, packaging, and identity accents. It can work for brief editorial callouts or captions when set with comfortable tracking, but the irregular rhythm makes it less ideal for dense, small-size reading.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a quirky, handmade personality that suggests DIY signage and casual display typography. Its unevenness reads as expressive rather than rough, giving text a light, whimsical energy.
Likely designed to deliver a distinctive, handmade sans voice—compact and space-efficient, yet visibly human in its stroke behavior and proportions. The intention appears to be approachable display typography with enough inconsistency to feel crafted rather than standardized.
Distinctive, slightly idiosyncratic constructions show up in several letters (notably the angular diagonals and narrow arches), which adds character but also means it benefits from generous spacing and moderate sizes. Numerals follow the same condensed, organic logic and feel consistent with the letterforms.
