A lively, slanted handwritten script with brush-pen behavior: strokes swell subtly on curves and taper into pointed entries and exits. Letterforms are tall and compact with tight interior counters, a bouncy baseline rhythm, and frequent looped constructions in both uppercase and lowercase. Connections appear natural in word settings, with fluid joins, occasional lifted strokes, and an overall quick, gestural finish that keeps texture active across a line.
Well-suited to short, attention-grabbing text where a personal, handmade voice is desirable—logos, product packaging, café/food messaging, social graphics, invitations, and poster headlines. It performs best at display sizes where the tight counters and quick stroke turns have room to breathe.
The font reads upbeat and personable, like a fast signature or hand-lettered note made with a felt-tip or brush pen. Its bounce and looping forms add a playful, approachable tone while the narrow, upright-leaning silhouettes keep it nimble and energetic.
Designed to capture the feel of casual brush handwriting in a clean, repeatable system, prioritizing speed, flow, and expressive gesture over formal calligraphic construction. The narrow, vertical emphasis and looped joins aim to create a compact, energetic texture that feels conversational and contemporary.
Uppercase characters behave like expressive initials rather than formal caps, often built from single sweeping strokes. Lowercase shows compact bowls and tight apertures, and punctuation-like marks (such as i/j dots) are small and understated, keeping the overall color even. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with rounded turns and brisk terminals, matching the script’s rhythm in mixed content.
