A lively, handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and a pronounced slant. Strokes show clear contrast between thick downstrokes and finer hairlines, with rounded terminals and occasional tapered entries/exits. Letterforms are narrow and tall with buoyant, slightly irregular rhythm, mixing connected cursive behavior with a few more separated, print-like shapes depending on the character. Ascenders and descenders are long and expressive, and counters stay open enough to keep small sizes readable despite the tight proportions.
Well-suited for short-to-medium display copy where a casual handwritten tone is desired—social graphics, invitations, greeting cards, packaging callouts, and boutique branding. It works best at larger sizes or with comfortable tracking so the narrow, high-contrast strokes and tight joins remain clear.
The overall tone is warm and personable, like quick but confident lettering on a card or café chalkboard. Its bouncy curves and looping forms create an upbeat, informal voice that feels approachable rather than formal or traditional.
Designed to mimic fast, natural brush lettering with a consistent slant and expressive loops, offering a friendly script voice for contemporary, informal display typography.
Uppercase letters tend to be more decorative and varied, with flourished strokes and occasional looped structures that stand out as initial caps. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simplified forms and smooth curves that match the script’s stroke energy.
