A lively handwritten script with brush-like strokes and rounded terminals. Letterforms lean forward with a smooth, continuous rhythm and frequent soft joins, while pressure changes create subtle thick–thin modulation. The shapes are narrow and slightly condensed, with compact lowercase proportions and looped ascenders/descenders that add movement without becoming overly ornate. Numerals match the hand-drawn feel, staying simple and upright with lightly tapered ends.
Well-suited to display use where a personable, handmade voice is needed—such as boutique branding, product packaging, quotes for social media, greeting cards, and informal invitations. It can also work for short headlines or pull quotes when a relaxed, friendly emphasis is desired.
The tone is approachable and upbeat, resembling quick marker or brush lettering used for personal notes and casual signage. Its gentle irregularities and bouncy baseline give it a human, conversational character rather than a polished calligraphic formality.
Designed to capture the look of quick, connected brush handwriting with consistent energy and readability. The intent appears to be an expressive, everyday script that feels human and spontaneous while remaining clear in common words and short lines of text.
Capitals are simplified and easygoing, mixing open counters and occasional looped entries that help them blend with the lowercase. Spacing appears naturally uneven in a handwritten way, favoring texture and flow over strict uniformity, which enhances authenticity in short phrases.
