A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen character and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are tall and compact, with a narrow overall footprint and rhythmic, slightly irregular stroke endings that mimic pressure and lift-off. The uppercase set mixes print-like simplicity with soft curves, while the lowercase leans more cursive, featuring frequent loops on ascenders/descenders and occasional soft connections. Counters are small and openings can be tight, contributing to a compact, vertical texture in text.
Well suited to short-to-medium display copy where a friendly handwritten voice is desirable—greeting cards, invitations, quote graphics, packaging labels, and casual branding accents. It can also work for headings and pull quotes, while very small sizes may benefit from generous tracking due to the compact forms and tight counters.
The font reads warm and personable, like quick, confident hand lettering on cards or labels. Its bouncy curves and looped strokes give it a cheerful, crafty tone rather than a formal calligraphic one.
Designed to emulate casual brush script lettering with a narrow, upright stance and expressive contrast, aiming for an approachable handmade look that remains legible in display settings.
In longer lines, the strong vertical emphasis and tight internal spaces create a dense, energetic color. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, with rounded shapes and varied stroke contrast that keeps them consistent with the letters.
