A lively brush-pen script with a forward slant and compact proportions. Strokes show clear pressure modulation, with tapered entries and exits and occasional heavier downstrokes, creating a rhythmic, handwritten texture. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, with open counters and simplified shapes that prioritize speed and gesture over strict construction. Terminals often finish in soft hooks or flicks, and spacing varies naturally, reinforcing the hand-drawn feel.
Works well for short to medium-length display text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—posters, packaging accents, café menus, social content, and pull quotes. It is best used at sizes where the brush texture and tapered joins remain clear, and can pair effectively with a neutral sans for supporting text.
The overall tone is informal and personable, with an upbeat, spontaneous character. Its quick, slightly imperfect rhythm reads as conversational and human, suggesting notes, captions, and casual branding rather than formal correspondence.
Designed to capture the immediacy of brush handwriting in a consistent, usable set of glyphs, balancing readability with expressive stroke movement. The intent appears to be a casual, modern script that adds warmth and personality to display typography.
Uppercase forms are taller and more gestural, often leaning into broad, sweeping curves, while lowercase shapes stay compact and quick, keeping the line lively. Numerals follow the same brush logic with rounded forms and tapered strokes, matching the script’s energetic cadence.
