A lively handwritten script with a noticeable rightward slant and brush-pen modulation that creates sharp thins and fuller downstrokes. Letterforms are narrow and upright in proportion, with compact lowercase bodies and tall ascenders/descenders that add vertical rhythm. Strokes are smooth and slightly tapered, with frequent looped entries and exits; connections are implied by the cursive construction even when letters render more as separated script forms. Terminals are rounded or softly flicked, and spacing varies subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a natural, drawn-by-hand cadence.
Works best for short to medium text where a human, crafted voice is desirable—logos, product packaging, café or lifestyle branding, invitations, posters, and social graphics. It also suits pull quotes and headings when paired with a quieter sans or serif for body copy.
The overall tone feels personable and approachable, with an upbeat, informal energy. Its looping shapes and springy rhythm suggest handwritten notes, boutique branding, and lighthearted editorial accents rather than strict formality.
Likely drawn to capture the immediacy of brush-script handwriting while keeping shapes tidy and consistent enough for display use. The narrow proportions and tall extenders appear intended to deliver elegant verticality and a distinctive silhouette in headlines.
Uppercase letters mix simple, slender forms with occasional swashy loops (notably on letters like A, J, and H), giving headlines a decorative but still readable character. Numerals are simple and handwritten in spirit, matching the letter texture and maintaining the same tapered stroke behavior across the set.
