A lively, handwritten print style with a rightward slant and brush-pen construction. Strokes show subtle pressure modulation, with rounded terminals and occasional tapered entries that give letters a fluid, drawn-in-one-go feel. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed, with a low x-height and gently uneven widths that create a natural rhythm. Curves are soft and open, counters are moderately sized, and spacing feels airy enough for word shapes to stay clear despite the energetic forms.
Works well for short-to-medium text where an informal voice is desirable, such as packaging, café menus, posters, pull quotes, invitations, and social media graphics. It’s especially effective in branding accents and headings where the handwritten motion can carry personality without requiring connected script.
The overall tone is warm and conversational, like a quick note written with a marker or brush pen. Its bouncy cadence and soft endings read as upbeat and personable rather than formal or technical.
Designed to mimic an everyday brush-written print hand: fast, confident strokes with enough consistency to typeset smoothly, while preserving small irregularities that signal authenticity and spontaneity.
Capital forms have a simple, legible structure with mild flourish in a few joins and bowls, while lowercase letters keep a consistent handwritten cadence. Numerals follow the same brushy logic, with rounded shapes and slight variation in stroke width that maintains an easygoing, human feel in mixed text.
