A lively cursive script with a consistent rightward slant and a brush-pen, marker-like stroke that tapers at starts and finishes. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with long ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase bodies, creating an airy rhythm and quick handwritten cadence. Strokes are mostly smooth and continuous with occasional joins, open counters, and lightly irregular terminals that preserve a natural, drawn-by-hand feel. Numerals follow the same brisk, handwritten logic, staying simple and slightly condensed to match the letterforms.
Well suited to short-to-medium display text where an upbeat handwritten voice is needed—brand marks, product packaging, poster headlines, social graphics, invitations, and pull quotes. It can also work for accent lines in layouts when paired with a restrained sans or serif for body copy.
The overall tone is informal and personal, like quick note-taking or a confident signature. It reads energetic and contemporary rather than formal, balancing friendliness with a slightly edgy, expressive motion.
Designed to capture fast, fluent handwriting with a brushy edge—prioritizing personality, momentum, and legibility at display sizes over strict uniformity. The condensed, tall proportions and gestural capitals suggest an emphasis on expressive headlines and signature-style wording.
Capitals are prominent and gestural, often relying on single sweeping strokes that give words a strong lead-in. Spacing feels handwritten and dynamic, with some letters appearing more loosely connected than others, which reinforces an authentic, non-mechanical texture.
