A lively, brush-pen script with a pronounced rightward slant and dense, ink-rich strokes. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with rounded terminals, tapered joins, and visible pressure shifts that create a natural brush rhythm. The outlines are smooth but intentionally irregular in places, giving a drawn-by-hand texture and a fast, confident stroke flow. Spacing is tight and the forms feel connected and continuous in running text, producing a cohesive cursive line.
Well suited to packaging, café-style menus, posters, and brand marks that benefit from a bold handwritten signature. It also works effectively for short headlines and social media graphics where an expressive, personal tone is desired.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, evoking quick marker or brush lettering used for notes, signage, and personal messages. Its bouncy cadence and bold presence feel approachable and expressive rather than formal or reserved.
Designed to capture the immediacy of brush handwriting in a consistent typographic system—prioritizing motion, personality, and strong stroke presence for attention-grabbing display use.
In longer passages, the strong slant and compact counters create a dark, energetic texture that reads best at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same brushy weight and forward motion, reinforcing a consistent, handwritten voice across the set.
