A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and slightly right-leaning forms. Strokes are thick and smoothly tapered, with rounded terminals and occasional swelling at curves that mimics pressure variation. Letterforms are narrow and compact with a tight rhythm, while widths vary noticeably between characters, creating a natural, uneven cadence. Ascenders are tall and prominent, and many lowercase shapes rely on simple loops and single-storey construction, giving the alphabet a quick, sketch-like clarity rather than formal calligraphy.
Works well for short-to-medium headlines where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—logos, product packaging, café or boutique signage, posters, and social graphics. It can also support invitations and greeting-style materials when set with generous spacing and moderate line lengths for readability.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, like confident marker lettering on packaging or a handwritten note. Its bouncy movement and soft curves keep it personable and non-authoritarian, suggesting warmth and spontaneity.
Designed to capture the immediacy of real handwriting with a brush marker, balancing charm and legibility. The intent appears to be an energetic, contemporary script that feels personal and handmade while staying clear enough for prominent display copy.
The sample text shows consistent stroke texture across words, with clear, readable capitals that act like display initials. Numerals share the same hand-drawn character and rounded endings, and the set maintains a cohesive brush-script personality across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
