A lively handwritten print with a clear rightward slant and softly rounded terminals. Strokes read as marker- or brush-like with low contrast and smooth, slightly tapered ends, giving the letters an easy, flowing rhythm without connecting. Proportions are compact with relatively small lowercase interiors and short ascenders/descenders, while capitals are simple and open with generous curves. Numerals are similarly loose and curvy, matching the script-like momentum and maintaining consistent stroke texture across the set.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where a human, casual voice is desired—such as packaging callouts, posters, social posts, invitations, and greeting cards. It can also work for headings, pull quotes, and branding accents where a friendly handwritten feel is more important than strict typographic formality.
The tone is upbeat and personable, with an informal charm that feels conversational and optimistic. Its slightly bouncy baseline and gentle stroke endings evoke quick, confident handwriting, making text feel friendly rather than formal or technical.
Designed to capture the look of neat, fast handwriting with a brushy smoothness—balancing informal personality with enough consistency to hold together in sentences and display settings.
The forms prioritize readability through open counters and simplified construction, while the slant and rounded joins add motion and softness. The overall texture stays even in longer lines, producing a cohesive handwritten color that remains legible at moderate sizes.
