A tall, condensed handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and lightly modulated strokes. Letterforms are mostly upright with long ascenders and descenders, compact counters, and rounded terminals that taper subtly at curves. Connections appear selectively rather than fully continuous, giving the text a quick, natural rhythm with small baseline irregularities and a hand-drawn bounce. Capitals are simple and narrow, and numerals follow the same narrow, drawn-in-ink construction for a cohesive set.
Works well for short display settings where a friendly, handmade voice is needed—branding wordmarks, packaging callouts, cafe/retail signage, posters, and social graphics. It’s especially effective in larger sizes where the brush texture and narrow proportions can add character without sacrificing clarity.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, like quick marker lettering on a note or label. Its narrow, energetic shapes read as contemporary and informal, with a slightly playful spontaneity rather than polished calligraphy.
Likely designed to capture the immediacy of handwritten brush lettering in a font that stays compact and vertical. The goal appears to be an approachable, modern script suitable for upbeat display typography rather than formal or ornamental use.
The texture comes from small variations in stroke thickness and curvature, producing a lively line of text without looking messy. The condensed proportions help long words fit in tight spaces, while the tall extenders add distinctive vertical rhythm.
