A tall, condensed sans with a wiry stroke and gently rounded terminals. Letterforms are built from simple, monoline shapes with slight, hand-drawn irregularities that create a soft wobble in stems and curves. Counters are open and oval, and the overall rhythm feels airy, with generous internal space despite the narrow proportions. The lowercase includes single-storey forms (notably a and g), while capitals stay clean and pared back, emphasizing verticality over width.
It works best for short-to-medium display copy such as headlines, posters, cover titles, and packaging where a playful, narrow voice is useful and character can lead. It can also suit youth-oriented branding and event collateral, particularly when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The font reads as lighthearted and personable, with a handcrafted charm that keeps it from feeling mechanical. Its narrow, elongated proportions give it a slightly theatrical, storybook tone, balancing neatness with an informal, doodled energy.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-getting sans with a handmade sensibility—prioritizing charm, vertical elegance, and an approachable tone over rigid typographic neutrality.
In text, the narrow set produces a tight horizontal footprint and an animated texture, especially where round letters alternate with tall verticals. Curves remain smooth rather than geometric, and the overall feel is more human than strictly engineered, making it visually distinctive at display sizes.
