A lively handwritten script with brush-pen behavior: rounded terminals, occasional ink-tapering, and noticeable stroke modulation that gives letters a drawn, human rhythm. The forms are upright with a narrow overall footprint, mixing connected cursive in the lowercase with more standalone, simplified capitals. Ascenders are tall and looped (notably in b, d, h, l), while the lowercase remains compact, creating strong vertical emphasis. Curves are soft and open, counters are generous, and spacing is slightly irregular in an intentional, natural way, reinforcing the hand-rendered texture.
Well-suited to short display settings where an informal, personal voice is desired—such as product packaging, café or boutique branding, greeting cards and invitations, social media graphics, and quote-based layouts. It performs best at medium to large sizes where the stroke character and loops can stay clear.
The font reads as warm and approachable, with an upbeat, slightly quirky charm. Its looping ascenders and buoyant letterforms evoke personal notes, DIY branding, and friendly lifestyle messaging rather than formal correspondence.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand lettering—combining readable, upright structures with cursive flow and expressive loops to create a friendly script for contemporary, casual design.
Capitals are comparatively minimal and legible, pairing well with the more flowing lowercase; this mixed structure helps it hold together in short words and headline-length phrases. Numerals keep the same handwritten energy, with rounded shapes and simple construction that suit casual display use.
