A loose, handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and a brush-pen feel. Strokes stay largely monoline with softly tapered terminals and rounded joins, giving the letterforms a smooth, continuous rhythm. Proportions are tall and compact, with small lowercase counters and short x-height relative to the ascenders. Capitals are simplified and slightly decorative, while the lowercase shows frequent connecting tendencies and looped forms, producing an energetic, flowing texture in words.
Well suited to short display copy where a human, conversational voice is desired—logos, boutique branding, packaging labels, social posts, posters, and quote graphics. It performs best at medium-to-large sizes where the narrow proportions and tight interior spaces have room to breathe.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick but confident marker lettering. It reads upbeat and approachable, with a slightly dramatic flair from the tall, narrow shapes and sweeping entry/exit strokes.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-drawn brush script while keeping forms cohesive enough for repeatable, decorative display setting. The narrow, tall build and flowing connections emphasize speed, personality, and a modern casual signature-like impression.
Letterfit and stroke momentum create a fast handwritten cadence, with occasional irregularities that enhance authenticity rather than strict uniformity. Numerals match the same brushed, slanted construction and remain simple and legible at display sizes.
