A slanted, brush-pen script with tapered terminals and subtly uneven stroke edges that keep the texture human and drawn. Letterforms are compact and upright in their footprint but swing with a bouncy baseline and variable rhythm, mixing narrower joins with occasional wider, more open bowls. Curves are rounded and elastic, with frequent looped constructions and simplified, single-stroke gestures that favor speed and flow over formal precision.
Works best for short to medium-length text where a casual, handcrafted feel is desired—logos, product labels, café menus, invitations, pull quotes, and promotional headers. It’s particularly effective at larger sizes where the stroke texture and loops can be appreciated without crowding.
The tone reads relaxed and personable, like quick marker lettering used for notes, packaging, or social captions. Its energetic loops and lively strokes give it an upbeat, informal voice that feels approachable rather than elegant or corporate.
Designed to capture the immediacy of brush handwriting in a consistent, reusable typeface—prioritizing expressive movement, friendly character, and quick readability in display settings.
Capitals are distinctive and slightly decorative, often starting with assertive entry strokes that stand out well at the beginning of words. Spacing and connections feel intentionally loose in places, preserving handwritten spontaneity; the numerals follow the same brushy logic with simple, legible forms.
