A lively brush-script style with a forward slant, high-contrast strokes, and tapered terminals that suggest a flexible pen or brush. Letterforms mix smooth, looped joins with occasional breaks, creating a semi-connected rhythm that still reads as cursive. Proportions are tall and slim overall, with prominent ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase bodies, giving lines a vertical, elegant bounce. Capitals are more gestural and varied, often featuring entry/exit swashes and open counters that add flair without becoming overly ornate.
Well-suited for short-to-medium display copy such as branding marks, packaging callouts, invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It also works nicely for pull quotes and headings where a casual, handwritten tone is desired, especially when paired with a simple sans or understated serif for supporting text.
The font feels personable and upbeat, with an informal handwritten character that leans romantic and crafty rather than strict or technical. Its energetic stroke modulation and looping forms add a sense of spontaneity and warmth, making text feel like a quick, confident signature.
Designed to capture the look of modern brush lettering—fluid, expressive, and slightly imperfect—while staying coherent across an alphabet. The emphasis appears to be on energetic rhythm, elegant tall proportions, and eye-catching swashes for decorative impact in headlines and signature-style applications.
Numerals follow the same brush logic, with simple constructions and noticeable stroke tapering that keeps them light and dynamic. The overall texture alternates between thicker downstrokes and fine hairlines, creating a lively sparkle; this makes it especially impactful at display sizes where the contrast and swashes can breathe.
