A wiry, hand-drawn print face with slim strokes and a slightly rough, inked texture. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with lively, irregular contours and occasional spiky terminals that feel pen-sketched rather than mechanically drawn. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with long ascenders/descenders, a relatively small x-height, and a gently inconsistent baseline that adds bounce. Contrast appears from changing stroke pressure and tapered ends, and counters stay fairly open, helping the light forms remain readable in display sizes.
Best suited to display settings where texture and personality are assets: book covers, chapter titles, posters, packaging, invitations, and thematic branding. It will be most effective at medium to large sizes where the tapered ends and irregular stroke edges can be appreciated without losing clarity.
The tone is whimsical and storybook-like, with a quirky, rustic charm that suggests handmade notes, fantasy ephemera, or playful editorial headings. Its slightly scratchy elegance reads as expressive and characterful rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand lettering in an unconnected print style—prioritizing charm, narrative flavor, and a lightly calligraphic rhythm over strict geometric consistency.
Capitals have a decorative presence and tend to feel more calligraphic, while the lowercase stays simple and legible with subtle idiosyncrasies. Numerals match the same wiry, hand-rendered construction, keeping the set cohesive for titles and short callouts.
