A tall, condensed hand-drawn print style with mostly straight, slightly wavy strokes and rounded ends. The letterforms are narrow and vertically stretched, with a lively, uneven rhythm and subtle wobble that suggests marker or brush pressure without strong contrast. Counters tend to be small and compressed, and curves are simplified into tight ovals and narrow bowls. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, giving lines of text a jittery, organic cadence while remaining generally upright and legible.
It works best for short-to-medium display settings where a compact, high-impact line is needed—posters, book covers, product packaging, café-style signage, and playful brand marks. The condensed build also suits narrow columns or layouts where space is tight and a handmade tone is desired.
The font conveys an informal, offbeat energy—friendly and a little eccentric—like hand-lettered signage or a quickly sketched title. Its tight proportions and animated irregularities create a humorous, crafty tone that feels casual rather than polished.
The design appears intended to mimic informal hand lettering in a condensed, display-friendly proportion, prioritizing personality and texture over geometric precision. Its consistent tall build and intentionally imperfect outlines aim to provide an approachable, characterful voice for attention-grabbing text.
In running text the condensed shapes stack into a strong vertical texture, while occasional flare-like terminals and slightly pinched joins add character. Numerals match the same tall, narrow construction, keeping the overall color consistent across mixed alphanumeric settings.
