A lively handwritten script with a rightward slant and a smooth, brush-pen rhythm. Strokes feel largely monoline with subtly tapered ends, giving the letters a soft, inked finish rather than crisp terminals. The forms are tall and compact with narrow proportions, rounded bowls, and frequent looped constructions in both upper- and lowercase. Letter widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, and connections are suggested by the flowing stroke logic even when letters remain mostly unjoined in text.
Works well for short to medium text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired, such as social media graphics, greeting cards, invitations, posters, and packaging accents. It also suits headers, pull quotes, and branding moments that benefit from a personal, human touch.
The tone is informal and approachable, like quick but confident note-taking with a bit of flair. Its bouncy curves and looping gestures add warmth and playfulness, making the text feel personable and conversational rather than formal or technical.
Designed to emulate quick, natural cursive handwriting with a brush-like smoothness and a compact, energetic rhythm. The goal appears to be legibility with personality—retaining hand-drawn quirks while staying consistent enough for display text.
Capitals are simplified and upright-leaning with a hand-drawn irregularity that reads intentional rather than messy. Descenders (such as g, j, y) are long and curvy, contributing to a lively baseline movement. Numerals follow the same soft, handwritten logic, with rounded shapes and consistent stroke behavior that keeps them visually aligned with the letters.
