A brush-pen script with rounded terminals, soft joins, and a gently right-leaning rhythm. Strokes show natural taper and pressure changes, with thicker downstrokes and lighter connecting strokes that keep counters open and forms readable. Letter shapes are compact with tall ascenders and occasional looped details, and spacing feels slightly irregular in a deliberate, hand-made way. Numerals follow the same casual brush logic, mixing simple upright structures with subtle curves and tapered ends.
Works best for short to medium-length display text such as logos, product packaging, café or boutique branding, social media graphics, invitations, and quote-style headlines. It can also serve as an accent font paired with a clean sans for supporting copy where a friendly handwritten voice is desired.
The overall tone is approachable and upbeat, evoking modern casual lettering rather than formal calligraphy. Its bouncy rhythm and soft curves give text a personable, conversational feel suited to cheerful, everyday messaging.
Designed to capture the look of contemporary brush lettering in a clean, usable script: energetic, personable, and legible at display sizes. The intent appears to balance natural handwriting character with enough consistency for repeatable branding applications.
Capital forms are simplified and brushy, pairing well with the more flowing lowercase without becoming overly ornamental. The texture remains consistent across the alphabet, with smooth curves and minimal sharp corners, helping longer phrases feel cohesive while retaining a hand-written spontaneity.
