A slanted, handwritten script with a smooth, brush-pen feel and mostly monoline strokes. Forms are compact and tall with rounded turns, tapered terminals, and occasional stroke swelling at curves that suggests fast, continuous writing. Letter shapes are simplified and open, with a lively baseline rhythm and slightly uneven widths that preserve an organic, hand-drawn cadence. Capitals are large and gestural, while lowercase stays compact with small counters and short internal space, reinforcing a tight, nimble texture in text.
Well suited to branding elements, short headlines, quotes, and callouts where a personal, handwritten tone is desired. It can add warmth to packaging and promotional graphics, and works especially well for energetic display use rather than small, information-dense copy.
The overall tone is informal and upbeat, like quick marker lettering for notes, packaging, or social content. Its forward slant and brisk stroke rhythm give it momentum and confidence, while the rounded joins keep it approachable rather than sharp or formal.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of quick cursive brush lettering—clean enough to set text, but spontaneous enough to feel personal and unpolished. It prioritizes flow, speed, and character over strict uniformity.
Numerals and capitals share the same flowing, written rhythm, keeping a cohesive voice across headings and short phrases. In longer lines, the compact lowercase and tight internal spacing create a dense, animated texture that reads best when given a bit of size or breathing room.
