A tall, handwritten script with a brush-pen character and lively, slightly irregular rhythm. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin behavior, with tapered terminals, occasional ink-trap-like narrowing, and elongated ascenders/descenders that give the line a buoyant vertical movement. Letterforms are mostly disconnected in the samples despite the script influence, relying on consistent slantless, upright posture and looping constructions (notably in capitals and letters like g, y, and z) to maintain flow. Counters are narrow and openings are small, producing a compact texture that reads best when given adequate size and spacing.
Well-suited to short display settings such as headlines, packaging callouts, invitations, greeting cards, and quote graphics where the handwritten energy can be appreciated. It can also work for branding accents or social media titles, while longer passages may benefit from larger sizes and looser tracking to keep counters and joins from feeling tight.
The font projects an upbeat, personable tone—casual and hand-crafted, with a touch of storybook charm. Its loopy forms and animated proportions suggest warmth and approachability rather than formality, making it feel conversational and expressive.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand lettering with a brush pen—prioritizing expressive loops, tall proportions, and a lively stroke cadence for standout display typography.
Capitals are especially distinctive, mixing simple, single-stroke constructions with occasional flourished loops, which creates a handmade, signature-like personality. Numerals follow the same brushy logic, with elegant curves and narrow shapes that match the overall vertical emphasis.
