A flowing, brush-like script with a consistent rightward slant and smooth, cursive joins. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation that mimics pressure changes, with rounded terminals and occasional tapered entries/exits. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed overall, with a relatively low x-height and lively, irregular widths that create a handwritten rhythm. Ascenders and descenders are long and curved, and capitals feature broader swashes and open loops that stand out in headline settings.
Well suited for short, expressive text such as logos, product packaging, invitations, greeting cards, posters, and pull quotes. It performs best in display sizes where the loops, joins, and brush modulation can be appreciated, and where a casual handwritten voice is desired.
The tone is informal and personable, with a quick, handwritten energy that feels approachable and slightly nostalgic. Its rhythmic slant and looping forms suggest upbeat notes, invitations, and friendly branding rather than formal or technical communication.
Designed to capture the feel of quick, confident handwriting with a brush-pen character—prioritizing motion, personality, and connected cursive flow. The prominent capitals and looping lowercase aim to deliver distinctive wordmarks and expressive display typography.
The texture is smooth and ink-like, and the connected lowercase creates strong word shapes. Some characters lean on distinctive loops and angled strokes, so readability holds best when given a bit of size or spacing, especially in longer lines or dense layouts.
