A slanted, brush-pen script with lively, calligraphic stroke modulation and tapered terminals. Letterforms are narrow and upright-leaning with a quick rhythm, mixing open counters and occasional looped joins. Ascenders are long and prominent while lowercase bodies sit relatively low, giving the text a light, airy vertical profile. Strokes show natural variability, with heavier downstrokes and thinner connecting strokes that keep words moving smoothly across a line.
Well-suited for short-to-medium text where a handcrafted voice is desired, such as logos, product labels, menu headers, greeting cards, invitations, and social posts. It performs best at display sizes, where the thin connections and tapered details remain clear, and can be paired with a plain sans for supporting copy.
The overall tone feels informal and personable, like quick marker lettering with a confident hand. Its energetic contrasts and looping gestures read as upbeat and approachable, balancing polish with a spontaneous, handwritten character.
Designed to emulate fast, modern brush handwriting with a readable, stylish slant and expressive stroke contrast. The forms aim to deliver an authentic hand-lettered feel while keeping letter shapes consistent enough for clean, contemporary display typography.
Capitals tend to be simplified and slightly separated, while lowercase forms more readily connect, creating a semi-joined texture in running text. Numerals follow the same brushy logic, with rounded forms and tapered starts/finishes that match the script’s flow.
