A slanted brush-pen script with compact proportions and a lively, handwritten rhythm. Strokes show clear pressure modulation, with thick downstrokes and finer entry/exit hairlines, producing crisp contrast and tapered terminals. Letterforms are narrow and upright-leaning, with rounded bowls, simple joins, and occasional open counters that keep the texture from feeling heavy. Uppercase forms read as quick, simplified brush capitals, while lowercase maintains a consistent cursive flow with prominent ascenders and descenders and a generally tight spacing.
Well suited to short, expressive text such as packaging names, café menus, social graphics, posters, and brand marks that want a handmade signature feel. It also works effectively for punchy headlines and callouts where the brush contrast and slant can carry personality without needing extended reading.
The overall tone is warm, informal, and energetic, like quick lettering for a personal note or a small-batch label. Its brisk slant and brush texture add momentum and a contemporary handmade feel, while the controlled shapes keep it legible and friendly rather than chaotic.
Designed to capture the immediacy of brush lettering in a consistent, repeatable typographic form—balancing expressive pressure-driven strokes with enough regularity to set clean, readable words. The narrow, upright-leaning construction suggests an aim for compact, energetic layouts and modern casual branding.
Numerals follow the same brush contrast and slanted posture, matching the alphabet’s rhythm. The font’s narrow set and strong vertical emphasis create dense word shapes, so it benefits from a bit of breathing room in tracking and line spacing in longer passages.
