A handwritten, brush-pen style script with a consistent rightward slant and tall, narrow proportions. Strokes show subtle pressure modulation, with slightly tapered terminals and rounded joins that keep the rhythm smooth. Letterforms alternate between connected and lightly separated shapes, creating a natural hand-drawn flow without rigid calligraphic structure. The texture is clean and even, with occasional playful loops in ascenders/descenders and compact counters that reinforce the condensed, vertical feel.
Works best for short-to-medium display copy where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—brand marks, packaging accents, posters, social graphics, invitations, and quote treatments. It can also suit headings and subheads in editorial or lifestyle contexts when paired with a more neutral text face.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick but confident handwriting on a card or label. Its narrow, energetic rhythm feels upbeat and personable, balancing legibility with a casual, expressive charm.
Designed to capture the immediacy of real handwriting with brush-like stroke behavior while remaining tidy and readable. The narrow, tall build and consistent slant suggest an aim for space-efficient display lettering that still feels personal and energetic.
Capitals are simple and gestural, matching the lowercase without becoming overly ornate, while punctuation and numerals follow the same brushy, slightly bouncy logic. Spacing appears intentionally variable, contributing to an organic line texture in longer text while staying coherent at display sizes.
