A brush-pen script with thick, rounded strokes and softly tapered terminals that mimic ink pooled at the ends of fast hand lettering. Forms are mostly unconnected, with a steady upright stance and a bouncy baseline rhythm created by varying ascenders/descenders and irregular joins. Counters are compact and rounded, while bowls and shoulders feel inflated and organic rather than geometric. Capitals are simplified and chunky with occasional swashy cues, and figures are heavy, smooth, and highly stylized to match the handwritten texture.
Best suited to short, expressive text such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and social media graphics where a friendly handwritten feel is desired. It can also work for logotypes or badges when used at larger sizes with generous tracking to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a lively, homemade character that suggests hand-painted signage or marker lettering. Its rounded weight and soft terminals keep it warm and personable, leaning more whimsical than formal.
Designed to capture the energy of quick brush lettering—bold, rounded, and slightly irregular—while staying legible and cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The intention appears to be an informal script that adds personality and warmth to display typography without relying on intricate flourishes.
The font shows noticeable per-glyph individuality—stroke widths, curves, and spacing vary in a natural hand-drawn way—so it reads best when that imperfection is part of the desired voice. The dense strokes and compact counters can visually fill in at small sizes, especially in tightly set text.
