A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel, combining thick downstrokes with finer connecting hairlines. Letterforms are tall and condensed, with a tight overall fit and a slightly irregular baseline rhythm that keeps it feeling organic. Strokes end in tapered terminals and occasional flicks, and many lowercase forms link with quick, simplified joins rather than continuous, formal calligraphy. Counters are compact, and the overall texture reads dense and energetic at text sizes.
Best suited for short to medium lines where its compact, brushy texture can read as intentional—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, pull quotes, and social media graphics. It can also work for brand marks or signature-style accents when paired with a neutral sans or serif for supporting text.
The tone is informal and upbeat, like quick marker lettering used for personal notes, café boards, and social posts. Its animated strokes and bouncy movement give it a warm, approachable personality with a hint of spontaneity.
Designed to capture a fast, confident handwritten look with brush contrast and condensed proportions, prioritizing personality and impact over formal penmanship. The letterforms aim for an energetic, contemporary script voice that stands out in display settings.
Uppercase characters behave like enlarged script initials, mixing simple stems with occasional loops and swashes, while the lowercase maintains a consistent handwritten rhythm. Numerals follow the same brush construction and remain narrow and vertically oriented, matching the letter texture well.
