A casual handwritten script with lightly connected strokes and a smooth, rounded pen feel. Letterforms are slender with modest stroke modulation, soft terminals, and a consistent, slightly bouncy baseline rhythm. Ascenders are tall and looped in places, while the lowercase stays compact with simplified shapes that keep words readable. Capitals are simple and open, leaning toward printed forms but blending naturally into the flowing lowercase.
Works well for short to medium-length text where a friendly, human touch is desired—logos and brand accents, packaging callouts, greeting cards and invitations, social media graphics, and casual editorial headlines. It can also serve as a secondary typeface to soften more structured layouts.
The overall tone is warm and personable, like neat marker handwriting used for notes or labeling. Its gentle curves and relaxed joins give it an informal, upbeat voice without looking messy or overly decorative.
Designed to capture neat, everyday cursive with a clean, consistent rhythm—prioritizing warmth and legibility over formal calligraphy. The restrained contrast and streamlined shapes suggest an aim for versatile display use across modern, informal applications.
Connection behavior varies: some letters join fluidly while others break, creating a natural hand-drawn cadence. Descenders (notably in g, j, y) are long and looped, adding a lively texture in running text. Numerals are simple and handwritten, matching the same narrow, rounded construction.
