A lively, brush-pen style script with a consistent rightward slant and smooth, rounded curves. Strokes stay fairly even in thickness, with soft terminals and occasional tapered starts that suggest quick hand movement. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with a bouncy baseline and open counters that keep words readable despite the informal construction. Capitals are larger and more gestural, while lowercase forms favor simplified joins and flowing entry/exit strokes for a continuous handwritten rhythm.
Works well for short to medium display text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—logos, product labels, cafe menus, event materials, and social posts. It’s especially effective in headlines, taglines, and callouts where the energetic script texture can lead the composition without requiring long-form reading.
The overall tone feels approachable and upbeat, like fast, confident handwriting used for notes, captions, or personal signatures. Its motion and looping forms give it an expressive, conversational character rather than a formal calligraphic one.
Designed to emulate quick brush handwriting with a smooth, connected flow, prioritizing personality and momentum over strict geometric consistency. The set balances legibility with expressive movement to provide a ready-made “human” tone for contemporary display typography.
Spacing and connections appear intentionally organic, with mild irregularities in rhythm that enhance the hand-drawn feel. Numerals follow the same slanted, rounded logic, blending naturally with the letters for mixed alphanumeric settings.
