A lively cursive hand with a brush-pen feel, showing pronounced contrast between thick downstrokes and hairline joins. Letterforms are tall and narrow with long ascenders and descenders, and a notably small x-height that gives the lowercase a compact, delicate core. Strokes end in tapered terminals and occasional flicks, with smooth, rounded curves and generous looping in characters like f, g, y, and Q. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the handwritten rhythm while keeping an overall upright, legible stance.
Well suited to short-to-medium display text where a handmade voice is desired, such as packaging, café menus, greeting cards, social media graphics, invitations, and quote-based posters. It can also work as an accent font paired with a neutral sans for headings, pull quotes, and product names.
The font reads upbeat and personable, like quick, confident marker lettering used for notes, captions, or craft labels. Its springy rhythm and looped forms convey warmth and a slightly whimsical, storybook tone without becoming overly formal.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of cursive handwriting with brushy contrast and a narrow, vertical silhouette, balancing charm with readability for everyday display use.
Uppercase letters are simplified and open, often with single-stroke construction and minimal ornament, while the lowercase leans more calligraphic with taller extenders and more pronounced entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with smooth curves and tapered ends that keep them visually consistent with the text.
