A lively handwritten script with tall, slender proportions and a gently bouncy baseline rhythm. Strokes feel pen-and-brush like, with rounded terminals, occasional teardrop-like endings, and subtle pressure modulation that adds texture without becoming calligraphic. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, with open counters and simplified joins that keep the flow quick and informal. Ascenders are prominent and looped in places, while lowercase forms remain relatively small, giving the overall silhouette a vertical, airy feel.
Well-suited for short to medium-length display copy where a personal, handmade feel is desirable—such as social posts, invitations, greeting cards, packaging callouts, labels, and quote graphics. It can also work for headlines and subheads in lifestyle or craft-oriented designs where warmth and informality are key.
The font conveys an approachable, spontaneous tone—like quick notes, captions, or a personal message written with a felt-tip or brush pen. Its buoyant rhythm and soft curves read as cheerful and conversational rather than formal or polished.
Designed to mimic quick, natural cursive writing with a light brush-pen character, prioritizing friendliness and motion over strict uniformity. The emphasis on tall forms, rounded finishes, and easy connections suggests an intention to deliver handwritten charm with clear readability in display sizes.
Caps are simple and upright with minimal ornamentation, pairing comfortably with the more fluid lowercase. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic with rounded forms and slight irregularities that reinforce the human touch. Spacing and connections vary naturally across letters, contributing to an authentic handwritten texture in longer phrases.
