A heavy, right-leaning informal italic with rounded terminals and a soft, brush-like stroke that keeps edges smooth rather than sharp. Forms are built from compact ovals and gently pinched joins, producing a bouncy rhythm and slightly irregular, hand-drawn consistency. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and curves dominate construction, with minimal straight geometry. Numerals and capitals follow the same plump, flowing logic, yielding a cohesive, lively texture in both short words and paragraph settings.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where personality matters—headlines, posters, product packaging, and promotional graphics. It also fits playful branding, kids-oriented materials, and large display text on social or digital creatives where its rounded boldness can stay legible.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a nostalgic, soda-shop friendliness. Its bold, cushioned shapes and energetic slant communicate warmth and motion, giving text a conversational, informal voice.
Designed to deliver a bold handwritten feel with a smooth, rounded brush character, prioritizing friendliness and immediacy over formality. The consistent slant and cushioned shapes aim to create energetic display typography that reads quickly while staying expressive.
Spacing appears intentionally generous for the heavy strokes, helping maintain clarity in dense lines. The letterforms show subtle width variation and softened joins that reinforce a drawn, marker-like feel without connecting letters.
