A fluid handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and a light, brush-pen feel. Strokes read mostly monoline with occasional thick–thin emphasis from simulated pressure, and terminals are rounded and slightly tapered. Letterforms are compact with tall ascenders and deep descenders, creating a pronounced vertical rhythm; bowls and counters stay fairly open despite the tight proportions. Joins are selective rather than fully continuous, giving the texture a quick, note-like cadence while maintaining overall cohesion across words.
Works best for short-to-medium text such as headlines, pull quotes, greeting-style messages, and branding phrases where a casual handwritten voice is desired. It also suits packaging accents and social media graphics, especially when paired with a clean sans for supporting copy.
The tone is informal and upbeat, with an expressive, personal signature quality. Its quick strokes and looping shapes feel friendly and conversational rather than formal or ceremonial.
Designed to capture a fast, natural handwriting rhythm with enough consistency for repeated setting, balancing expressive loops and slanted momentum with legible, open shapes for everyday display use.
Uppercase forms are lively and gesture-driven, often built from sweeping entry strokes and soft curves that stand out well in short words. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying simple and readable with minimal ornament.
