A lively brush-pen script with a consistent rightward slant and thick, rounded strokes. Letterforms show softly tapered terminals and slight width fluctuations that mimic pressure changes, with smooth curves and occasional angular joins. Spacing is open enough to keep lines readable, while the forms retain an intentionally imperfect, handwritten regularity rather than rigid geometric construction.
Works well for short-to-medium display copy where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—such as posters, packaging callouts, café/food branding, social media graphics, and casual logotypes. It can also serve as an accent font paired with a neutral sans for captions and supporting text.
The overall tone is casual and upbeat, with a quick, confident mark-making feel. It reads as personable and approachable, suggesting notes, signatures, and informal headlines rather than formal editorial typography.
Designed to capture the speed and texture of hand lettering with a brush or marker, balancing bold strokes and smooth curves for clear, expressive display use. The goal appears to be an informal, energetic script that stays legible while preserving a handmade personality.
Uppercase shapes are simple and gestural, often resembling quick marker caps, while lowercase maintains a rhythmic, steady cadence across words. Numerals match the same brushed construction, keeping the set visually cohesive in mixed alphanumeric settings.
