A lively, brush-pen style script with a consistent rightward slant and fast handwritten rhythm. Strokes are mostly monoline with subtle thick–thin modulation from pressure, producing sharp tapers at entries and exits and occasional heavier turns. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with compact lowercase bodies and long ascenders/descenders that create an airy vertical texture. Connections are frequent in text, but spacing and joins remain slightly irregular in a natural way, reinforcing an authentic hand-drawn feel.
Well-suited for short to medium display copy where a handwritten voice is desirable—logos, brand wordmarks, packaging callouts, social media graphics, posters, and quote layouts. It can also work for headings and pull-quotes when paired with a restrained sans or serif for body text.
The overall tone is informal and conversational, with a confident, quick signature-like energy. Its narrow, upright-leaning flow reads as contemporary and personable rather than ornate, making it feel approachable and spontaneous.
Designed to capture the look of quick brush handwriting—legible at display sizes while retaining the slight variability and stroke taper that signal a human hand. The narrow, tall proportions suggest an intent to keep words compact without losing expressive motion.
Uppercase forms are simplified and gestural, often built from a few sweeping strokes, while the lowercase shows more looped construction (notably in letters like g, j, y, and z). Numerals follow the same brisk pen movement with open shapes and minimal ornament, keeping the set cohesive in running text.
