A lively, brush-pen script with a consistent rightward slant and tapered stroke endings that suggest pressure and lift. Strokes move quickly with rounded joins, soft terminals, and occasional sharp flicks, creating a rhythmic, slightly bouncy baseline. Letterforms are compact and upright in their internal structure, with prominent ascenders and descenders and small, tight counters in many shapes. Capitals are simplified and gestural, designed to lead into following letters, while numerals share the same brisk, handwritten construction and stroke modulation.
Works best for short, high-impact text such as logos, product names, posters, and social graphics where the brushy energy can be a feature. It also suits packaging callouts, invitations with a casual tone, and header treatments, while longer paragraphs may feel visually dense due to the compact counters and strong stroke presence.
The font feels personable and spontaneous, like a confident note written with a marker or brush pen. Its brisk rhythm and animated loops give it an upbeat, approachable tone that reads as informal and expressive rather than polished or ceremonial.
Designed to capture the speed and character of modern brush lettering in a controlled, repeatable alphabet. The intention appears to balance legibility with expressive movement, using consistent slant, tapered terminals, and looping gestures to convey an informal handwritten voice.
Connections are suggested through entry and exit strokes even when letters are shown unjoined in the grid, and many forms include subtle swashes or hooks that add motion. The overall texture is dark and inky, with clear thick–thin transitions and a slightly calligraphic cadence that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
