A slanted handwritten print face with tall, compressed proportions and a brisk, right-leaning rhythm. Strokes feel pen/brush-like with subtle modulation, tapered ends, and occasional flicks, producing a lively baseline and slightly uneven texture that reads as intentionally informal. Letterforms stay unconnected but show natural variation in width and curvature, with open counters and quick, gestural joins where shapes turn.
Well-suited for short to medium-length display copy where an informal, human touch is desired—such as posters, packaging callouts, café/menu-style signage, and social media graphics. It can also work for quotes or subheads when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The overall tone is casual and personable, like quick marker notes or an informal sign. Its narrow, energetic forms add urgency and motion, giving text a conversational, upbeat feel without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to capture a quick, authentic handwritten look—narrow, slanted, and brushy—while keeping letterforms clear enough for practical display use. The goal appears to be a balance between spontaneity and legibility, delivering a natural note-taking or hand-lettered print impression.
Capitals are assertive and slightly angular, while lowercase forms are more fluid and simplified, helping maintain speed and consistency at text sizes. Numerals match the same handwritten cadence, with rounded forms and lightly exaggerated curves that keep the set cohesive.
