A lively, brush-pen script with a forward-leaning stance, high-contrast stroke modulation, and soft, rounded terminals. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with tall ascenders/descenders and a comparatively small x-height that gives the lowercase a compact, neat look. Strokes show a natural handwritten rhythm—thicker downstrokes and lighter upstrokes—with occasional tapered entries and slight bounce in baseline alignment. Capitals are simplified and airy, while many lowercase forms use single-storey constructions and open counters for clarity at display sizes.
Best suited for short display text where its brush texture and narrow, looping forms can read as intentional personality—logos, product labels, café menus, quote graphics, and event materials. It can also work for brief subheads or emphasis lines paired with a calmer sans for body copy.
The overall tone is warm and personable, like quick marker lettering used for notes, packaging, or social posts. Its energetic loops and varying stroke emphasis create an upbeat, approachable feel rather than a formal calligraphic one.
Designed to mimic quick, confident brush handwriting with a consistent slant and lively stroke contrast, aiming for an informal script that feels human and energetic while remaining legible in headline sizes.
Spacing appears intentionally tight to maintain a continuous handwritten flow, with joining behavior implied even when letters are not fully connected in every pair. Numerals follow the same brush rhythm and lean, blending well with the alphabet for casual headings and short callouts.
