An informal handwritten print with a brush-pen feel and a consistent rightward slant. Strokes are smooth and rounded with gently tapered terminals and minimal contrast, giving letters a soft, painted edge rather than a sharp monoline. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed, with simplified forms and open counters that keep words readable. The rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in a controlled way, mimicking natural marker lettering while remaining consistent across the alphabet and numerals.
Works well for posters, casual branding, packaging accents, and social media graphics where an approachable handwritten tone is desired. It’s especially effective for headlines, short blurbs, quotes, and callouts, and can serve as a friendly companion to a neutral sans in layouts.
The tone is relaxed and personable, like quick notes or casual signage. Its energetic slant and soft brush terminals add warmth and spontaneity, making text feel conversational and upbeat rather than formal or corporate.
Designed to capture the immediacy of quick brush lettering in a tidy, repeatable font—prioritizing warmth, speed, and legibility over calligraphic precision. The consistent slant and rounded stroke endings suggest an aim for informal emphasis that feels human and contemporary.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive, modern handwritten construction, and the numerals match the same brushy, slanted logic. The texture stays clean and even across longer lines, with enough shape distinction to support short-to-medium text while still feeling clearly hand-drawn.
