A slanted, brush-pen script with smooth, continuous strokes and rounded terminals. Letterforms show a gently bouncing baseline and a rhythm of narrow counters with occasional wider loops, creating an organic, handwritten texture. Strokes are mostly monoline with subtle thick–thin modulation, and many joins are implied through close spacing and flowing entry/exit strokes rather than rigid, calligraphic construction. Overall proportions are compact and tall, with elongated ascenders/descenders that add motion and vertical emphasis.
Well-suited for short-to-medium text where a personal voice is desirable—brand marks, packaging callouts, social posts, invitations, menu highlights, and quote graphics. It performs best at display sizes where the lively loops and narrow, handwritten details remain clear.
The font reads as informal and personable, like quick, confident handwriting made with a felt tip or brush pen. Its energetic slant and soft curves give it a cheerful, conversational tone that feels modern and relaxed rather than formal or ceremonial.
Designed to emulate quick, friendly cursive written with a brush or marker, prioritizing natural flow and expressiveness over strict typographic rigidity. The compact, tall proportions and energetic slant aim to deliver a contemporary handwritten look that remains cohesive across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Capitals are simple and gestural, leaning more toward handwritten initials than ornate swashes, which helps keep headings readable. Numerals and punctuation follow the same fluid, pen-drawn logic, maintaining consistent rhythm alongside text. Spacing and stroke endings feel intentionally imperfect in a natural way, reinforcing the handmade character.
