A fluid handwritten script with a quick, brush-pen rhythm and a forward slant. Strokes show noticeable thick–thin modulation with soft, tapered terminals, giving letters a lively, ink-on-paper feel rather than mechanical precision. Letterforms are narrow and loosely connected, with occasional breaks and varied join behavior that keep the texture organic. Ascenders are tall and looped, counters are open, and spacing is slightly irregular in a natural way that reads well at display sizes.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where its expressive stroke contrast and handwritten irregularity can shine—such as logos, labels, greeting cards, quotes, and social posts. It can also work for subheads or pull quotes when ample size and spacing preserve its airy, brushy detail.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, evoking casual note-taking and cheerful hand lettering. Its bouncy shapes and looping strokes feel expressive and informal, bringing warmth and approachability to headlines and short messages.
Designed to capture an easygoing, modern handwritten look with cursive flow and expressive loops, balancing readability with a clearly hand-drawn personality. The consistent slant and energetic terminals suggest an intention for friendly, contemporary display typography rather than long-form text.
Uppercase forms lean toward simple, handwritten caps with minimal ornament, while lowercase shows more cursive movement and looping in letters like g, y, and z. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with rounded shapes and tapered ends that match the script texture.
