A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and gently tapered strokes. Letterforms are right-leaning with rounded turns, open counters, and a slightly bouncy baseline that creates an informal rhythm. Stroke joins are fluid but not overly polished, with occasional angular breaks and visible modulation that suggests fast, confident writing. Capitals are simple and prominent, while lowercase forms stay compact with short extenders and soft, looped details; numerals are likewise simple and slightly irregular to match the hand-drawn texture.
Well suited to display use where a friendly handwritten voice is needed: brand marks, packaging callouts, café/menu headings, posters, and social graphics. It also works for short quotes or emphasis lines where its energetic rhythm and brushy strokes can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, like quick notes written with a marker or brush pen. Its brisk movement and imperfect consistency read as human and approachable, lending warmth and spontaneity rather than formality.
Designed to capture the look of quick, natural cursive writing with a brush pen—expressive and legible, prioritizing personal character and momentum over strict uniformity.
Spacing and letter widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, which enhances authenticity in longer text samples. The texture stays dark and confident, with terminals that often finish in small flicks or rounded blunts, helping the font retain clarity even with its informal construction.
