A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and smooth, rounded stroke endings. Letterforms lean forward with a loose, bouncy rhythm and slightly irregular proportions that keep the texture human rather than mechanical. Strokes are predominantly monoline with gentle swelling, and counters stay open for clarity. Uppercase forms are simplified and narrow, while lowercase shows more cursive motion with occasional joining and compact ascenders/descenders that keep the overall silhouette tidy.
Works well for short-to-medium text where an informal, personal voice is desired—such as social media graphics, product packaging accents, invitations, greeting cards, and pull quotes. It’s especially effective when paired with a clean sans or serif for contrast in headings and supporting copy.
The font reads as warm and conversational, like quick notes written with a felt-tip or brush pen. Its relaxed slant and springy curves give it an upbeat, informal tone suited to friendly messaging and lighthearted branding.
Designed to emulate quick, confident brush handwriting while staying readable in continuous text. The goal appears to be a casual script that feels personal and energetic without relying on heavy ornamentation.
Spacing appears naturally varied, contributing to an organic flow in text lines. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simple shapes and rounded terminals that blend well with the alphabet.
