A lively cursive with a brush-pen feel, featuring gently tapered strokes and a right-leaning rhythm. Letterforms are tall and compact with small counters and a notably low x-height, giving lowercase a delicate, tucked-in presence beneath long ascenders and descenders. Strokes show subtle thick–thin modulation and soft terminals, with occasional entry/exit swashes that keep the texture flowing without becoming overly ornate. Overall spacing is tight and the forms feel lightly irregular in a natural, handwritten way while remaining consistent enough for continuous reading.
Well-suited for short-to-medium text where a human, conversational voice is desired—quotes, captions, greeting cards, invitations, and lifestyle packaging. It can also work for headings and pull-quotes on posters or social graphics where the tall, narrow script helps fit longer phrases without feeling heavy.
The tone is warm and personable, like a quick note written with a felt-tip or brush pen. It reads as upbeat and approachable, carrying a breezy, informal energy that suits friendly messaging and lighthearted branding.
Designed to mimic everyday cursive handwriting with a brushy, modern feel—prioritizing speed, personality, and a continuous flow over strict geometric regularity. The compact lowercase and extended ascenders/descenders appear intended to create an elegant, airy silhouette while keeping an informal, handwritten charm.
Uppercase letters lean toward simple, narrow forms with occasional flourished cross-strokes (notably on letters like T and J), while lowercase relies on rounded loops and compact bowls. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with curved, slightly bouncy shapes that match the script texture.
