A compact, brush-pen cursive with thick, rounded strokes and gently tapered terminals. Letterforms lean mostly upright with a lively, uneven rhythm and variable letter widths that mimic quick hand lettering. Curves are soft and slightly swollen, counters are small, and joins are smooth but not overly polished, preserving a natural handwritten texture. Capitals are tall and simplified, pairing well with loopier, more animated lowercase forms.
Best suited for short-to-medium display copy where a personable, handwritten feel is desired—such as greeting cards, product packaging, café menus, event posters, and social media graphics. It also works well for logo wordmarks and brand accents when set with generous spacing and simple supporting type.
The overall tone is warm and conversational, with a playful bounce that feels personal and handmade. Its confident stroke weight and rounded shapes give it a cheerful, inviting voice suited to lighthearted messaging rather than formal typography.
Likely designed to deliver an easygoing brush-script look that feels spontaneous and human, balancing bold stroke presence with clear, rounded letter shapes for readable, upbeat display typography.
The lowercase shows frequent looping in letters like g, y, and z, while ascenders and descenders are pronounced, adding vertical movement. Numerals match the same brushy construction and maintain a clear, friendly presence at display sizes.
