A thick, marker-like handwritten script with rounded terminals and a mostly monoline feel. Strokes are smooth and slightly bouncy, with gently irregular widths and spacing that preserve a hand-drawn rhythm. Letterforms are compact and narrow with tall ascenders/descenders, while curves stay soft and open for legibility. Capitals are simple and upright, and lowercase forms show casual connections and occasional looped details (notably in letters like g, j, y, and z).
Well-suited for cheerful packaging, café or boutique branding, social media graphics, and short display copy where a friendly, hand-lettered feel is desirable. It also works nicely for invitations, greeting cards, and poster headlines, especially when paired with a simple sans for supporting text.
The overall tone is warm and conversational, like quick lettering with a felt-tip pen. Its lively rhythm and soft curves read as playful and personable rather than formal or precise.
Designed to deliver an easygoing, hand-written personality with confident, bold strokes and a steady upright posture. The intent appears to balance charm and readability in everyday display applications rather than mimic formal calligraphy.
Figures and punctuation follow the same rounded, handwritten construction, keeping color consistent in running text. The texture stays relatively clean (not dry-brushed), so it holds up well at moderate sizes while still feeling distinctly handmade.
