A flowing handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and soft, rounded forms. Strokes move with a smooth, brush-pen rhythm, showing tapered entries and exits and noticeably heavier downstrokes that give letters a lively, calligraphic pulse. Letterforms are compact and tall, with small lowercase proportions and long ascenders/descenders that add vertical elegance. Connections are implied through cursive construction, while spacing remains airy enough to keep words readable in short lines of text.
Well-suited for display applications where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—logos, product labels, café menus, social media graphics, and short headline copy. It also works nicely for casual event pieces like invitations or greeting cards, especially when set with generous tracking and line spacing.
The font reads as personable and upbeat, like neat marker or brush lettering used for quick notes and friendly headlines. Its looping shapes and confident stroke flow convey warmth and informality, leaning more modern-casual than formal script.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident cursive made with a brush or marker, balancing expressive stroke contrast with a tidy, repeatable structure for use in modern branding and informal editorial display.
Capitals are simple and gestural, acting like quick signature-style initials rather than ornate swashes, which helps maintain a clean texture in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with rounded curves and slight irregularity that reinforces the handmade character without looking messy.
