A chunky, brush-pen styled script with rounded terminals and visibly hand-drawn stroke behavior. Letterforms are mostly upright with a gentle forward rhythm, showing uneven stroke distribution and occasional swelling that suggests marker pressure. Counters are small and soft, curves are inflated, and joins are loose—some letters connect smoothly while others remain separate, reinforcing an informal handwritten texture. Ascenders and descenders are prominent, and overall spacing feels airy, with a slightly bouncy baseline and varied letter widths that keep the texture lively in words and lines.
This style works best where a friendly, handmade voice is desirable—logos, packaging, café or boutique signage, posters, and social media graphics. It also suits invitations, greeting cards, and short display copy where the expressive texture can shine at larger sizes.
The font reads as warm, approachable, and energetic, with a craft-like spontaneity. Its thick, rounded strokes and relaxed connections give it a cheerful, conversational tone that feels personal rather than polished.
The design appears intended to capture the feel of quick brush lettering: bold, rounded strokes, informal connectivity, and a lively rhythm that prioritizes personality over strict consistency. It’s built to deliver a distinctive handwritten presence in headlines and brand-forward applications.
The uppercase set is simplified and bold in silhouette, pairing well with the more flowing lowercase without becoming overly formal. Numerals share the same hand-inked character, with rounded shapes and casual proportions that match the script texture.
