A slender, pen-like script with a right-leaning, fast handwritten rhythm. Strokes show subtle pressure changes, with tapered entries and exits and occasional thicker downstrokes that add a lightly calligraphic feel. Letterforms are open and airy with rounded loops, long ascenders and descenders, and a compact lowercase body that sits low on the baseline. Connections are frequent in text, but not rigidly continuous, creating a natural, handwritten cadence with small irregularities that feel intentional rather than mechanical.
Works well for short display settings where a handwritten voice is desirable: logos, boutique branding, product labels, social posts, headers, and pull quotes. It can also suit invitations and greeting-style designs, especially when set at moderate to large sizes where the loops and connections remain clear.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, like quick notes written with a felt-tip or brush pen. Its looping forms and lively slant give it an informal charm suited to warm, approachable messaging rather than formal typography.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident handwriting with a touch of brush-pen flair. The narrow, tall proportions and looping terminals aim to deliver a distinctive, energetic word image while keeping the overall texture light and informal.
Capital letters are more decorative and gestural than the lowercase, with larger loops and occasional swash-like strokes that can create prominent word shapes. Spacing is relatively tight and the tall vertical proportions emphasize vertical rhythm; in longer text, the energetic joins and narrow counters can make it feel busy at small sizes.
