A lively handwritten script with tall, narrow letterforms and a bouncy baseline rhythm. Strokes show noticeable contrast between heavier downstrokes and lighter hairlines, with rounded terminals and occasional hooked entries/exits that suggest pen movement. Connections are intermittent rather than fully continuous, keeping words readable while preserving a spontaneous, drawn feel. The lowercase sits low with relatively short x-height, while ascenders and some capitals reach high, creating a vertical, airy texture.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display text such as invitations, greeting cards, product packaging, café-style menus, social posts, pull quotes, and headers where a friendly handwritten voice is desired. It works best when given enough size and spacing to let the thin hairlines and tight, tall shapes remain clear.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick neat handwriting used for notes, labels, or upbeat messaging. Its narrow proportions and springy curves give it a light, cheerful energy that feels approachable rather than formal.
Designed to capture a natural, pen-written look with a narrow, vertical cadence and expressive loops, balancing legibility with an intentionally imperfect handmade character for warm, casual branding and display use.
Capitals are simple and gestural, often built from single prominent strokes, and the numerals share the same hand-drawn irregularity and contrast. The texture is intentionally uneven in stroke pressure and curvature, which adds charm at display sizes but may feel busy in very small text.
