A loose, monoline handwritten script with a consistent felt-tip/marker stroke and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms lean forward and favor open curves, with a lively baseline bounce and variable character widths that keep the texture informal. Capitals are tall and gestural, while the lowercase uses compact bodies and long, smooth extenders; counters are generally open and simplified for quick, natural writing. Numerals echo the same drawn rhythm with rounded shapes and minimal internal detail.
Well-suited to short to medium text where personality matters—product packaging, café or boutique branding, event invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It can also work for posters and headlines that benefit from a friendly handwritten voice, especially when set with comfortable tracking and generous line spacing.
The tone is approachable and conversational, like quick notes written with a confident marker. Its energetic loops and slightly uneven rhythm add warmth and spontaneity, making it feel human and unpolished in a deliberate, charming way.
Designed to capture the immediacy of casual cursive writing in a clean, monoline marker style. The goal appears to be legibility with character: simplified shapes, open curves, and upbeat movement that read quickly while still feeling personal.
Stroke joins and crossings show a single-pass, drawn construction, giving the forms a subtle sketchiness without heavy texture. Spacing feels naturally hand-set, producing a lively word shape in running text and distinct silhouettes in short headings.
