A tall, condensed slab serif with a monoline feel and crisp, unbracketed serifs that read as small rectangular caps at stroke ends. The overall construction is upright and narrow, with slightly irregular curves and terminals that give the outlines a gently hand-cut quality rather than strict geometric precision. Counters are compact and vertical stems dominate, producing a tight rhythm and a poster-like verticality. Uppercase forms are slender and elongated, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation with simple, narrow bowls and modest extenders.
This font is well suited to headlines and short display settings where its condensed verticality can save space while staying distinctive. It works especially well for vintage-inspired posters, packaging and labels, book covers, and branded taglines where a whimsical, handcrafted slab-serif character is desirable.
The narrow proportions and quirky, lightly irregular detailing create a vintage, storybook tone—friendly and a bit eccentric rather than formal. It suggests an old-time display aesthetic with a handcrafted edge, suitable for playful or nostalgic messaging.
The design appears intended to combine the structure and sturdiness of a slab serif with a deliberately narrow, slightly offbeat drawing to evoke a retro, artisanal display voice. The consistent stroke weight and squared serifs prioritize a clear silhouette and strong rhythm over refined text neutrality.
In text, the condensed width increases density and emphasizes vertical strokes, which can make long passages feel tight; it reads best with generous tracking and comfortable line spacing. Numerals follow the same tall, narrow logic, keeping the overall color consistent across mixed content.
