A brisk, handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and springy rhythm. Strokes move quickly with tapered entries and exits, producing a mix of smooth curves and occasional sharp hooks; terminals often finish in small flicks. Letterforms are tall and slim with generous ascenders and descenders, while the lowercase stays compact, creating a distinctly top-heavy texture. Connection behavior is selective rather than fully continuous, and spacing varies slightly in a way that reinforces the natural, hand-drawn cadence.
Best suited for short to medium lines where personality is the goal: headlines, brand marks, product packaging accents, social graphics, and casual invitations or cards. It can also work for pull quotes and UI moments that benefit from a friendly handwritten cue, especially at larger sizes where the stroke texture and loops stay clear.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, like informal marker lettering used for notes, labels, and quick headlines. Its lively loops and energetic slant give it a chatty, spontaneous character that feels human and approachable rather than polished or formal.
Designed to capture quick, confident handwriting with a brushy stroke and expressive capitals, prioritizing warmth and motion over strict regularity. The compact lowercase and tall extenders appear intended to create a lively, vertical rhythm that stands out in display typography.
Caps are especially expressive and linear, often built from single flowing strokes that read well at display sizes. Numerals follow the same casual, handwritten construction with simple forms and consistent slant, maintaining a cohesive voice across letters and figures.
