A lively cursive script with a quick, handwritten rhythm and a noticeable rightward slant. Strokes alternate between hairline connectors and heavier downstrokes, creating crisp contrast and a brush-pen impression. Letterforms are tall and compact, with narrow proportions, tight internal counters, and frequent looped ascenders/descenders. Connections are fluid but not overly uniform, preserving natural pen movement; terminals are tapered and often finish with gentle hooks or flicks.
Well-suited to short to medium-length text where a personal, handmade voice is desirable—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, product packaging, and social graphics. It performs best at display sizes, where the fine connectors and tight counters remain clear.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like neat personal handwriting used for notes, invitations, or craft labeling. Its looping forms and buoyant baseline give it an upbeat, personable character that feels more playful than formal.
Designed to capture an energetic, modern handwritten look with legible cursive forms and expressive capitals. The intent appears to balance smooth connectivity with the spontaneity of real pen strokes, delivering a friendly script appropriate for lifestyle and craft-oriented applications.
Uppercase forms show more expressive swashes and entry strokes, helping initials stand out in mixed-case settings. Numerals are simple and handwritten in spirit, matching the script’s contrast and slant without becoming overly ornate.
