A compact, brush-pen script with tall ascenders and a relatively small lowercase body, creating a vertically driven silhouette. Strokes show clear pressure modulation with rounded terminals, occasional tapered entries, and a slightly irregular baseline that reinforces the hand-drawn rhythm. Letterforms are mostly connected in text, with simplified joins and open counters that keep words readable despite the narrow proportions. Capitals are larger and more gestural, pairing looped strokes with simplified structure for a consistent handwritten flow.
Works well for short-to-medium display settings where a personable handwritten voice is desired, such as logos, product packaging, social posts, invitations, and headline-style copy. It can also suit pull quotes or emphasis lines when paired with a neutral sans or serif for body text.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick marker lettering used for notes, labels, or personal messages. Its energetic rhythm and rounded forms feel upbeat and conversational rather than formal or technical.
Designed to emulate fast, confident brush handwriting with a tidy, compact footprint. The focus appears to be on producing an expressive, friendly script that maintains legibility in common display applications.
Spacing is fairly tight and the forms are compact, which helps create dense, cohesive word shapes. Numerals and capitals follow the same brush-script logic, with simple, bold figures and smooth curves that match the lowercase texture.
