A monoline handwritten script with a right-leaning slant and softly rounded terminals. Strokes have a marker/pen feel with slight wobble and natural irregularity, creating a lively rhythm across words. Letterforms are compact with small counters and tight apertures, while ascenders and descenders are long and prominent, giving the line a tall, wiry silhouette. Connections appear in many lowercase sequences, but joins are not rigidly continuous, preserving an informal, written-by-hand texture.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where an informal handwritten voice is desired, such as greeting cards, invitations, captions, pull quotes, and lifestyle packaging. It also works effectively for signatures or brand accents when a friendly, personal tone is needed more than strict typographic regularity.
The font reads like quick, confident note-taking—warm, approachable, and slightly cheeky. Its bouncy movement and looped forms suggest spontaneity and a human touch rather than polished formality.
Designed to emulate a natural cursive hand with quick strokes, looped descenders, and relaxed spacing, balancing readability with an intentionally unrefined, human character. The emphasis appears to be on capturing gesture and rhythm rather than precise geometric construction.
Uppercase characters are simplified and upright-to-slightly slanted with open, airy shapes that pair naturally with the more cursive lowercase. Numerals are handwritten and rounded, with simple forms that match the same pen rhythm. Overall consistency comes from the steady stroke weight and repeated loop motifs in letters like g, y, j, and f.
