A lively, brush-pen script with a consistent rightward slant and compact proportions. Strokes show a smooth, slightly calligraphic modulation, with rounded terminals and occasional tapered entries that suggest quick, confident writing. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, with generous curves, looped shapes, and a bouncy baseline rhythm that keeps words moving. Uppercase characters are larger and more gestural, while the lowercase stays compact with tight counters and short ascenders/descenders overall, maintaining an even, narrow footprint.
Well suited to short, prominent text where a handwritten voice is desirable, such as branding accents, packaging labels, posters, and social media graphics. It can also work for invitations or quotes at larger sizes, where the energetic cursive flow and compact width help fit more characters per line while keeping a personal tone.
The tone feels informal and personable—like a handwritten note done with a felt-tip or brush pen. Its brisk stroke rhythm and springy curves give it an upbeat, conversational character that reads as approachable rather than formal.
Designed to deliver a natural, handwritten cursive look with brushlike energy and clear word shapes, prioritizing expressive rhythm and a friendly voice for display and promotional typography.
Capitals add emphasis through sweeping strokes and open, curved construction, creating strong entry points for headlines. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with rounded forms and slight variation that reinforces the drawn-by-hand feel in display settings.
