A brush-pen style script with compact proportions and a lively, hand-drawn rhythm. Strokes are thick and slightly tapered with rounded terminals, producing a soft, inky silhouette and occasional felt-tip/brush texture. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, with simplified joins and a steady rightward flow; capitals are tall and narrow, while lowercase forms stay compact with short extenders and an uneven, natural baseline. Spacing is slightly irregular in a way that reads intentional and handmade, maintaining legibility while keeping an energetic bounce.
This style suits short, expressive copy such as social graphics, packaging callouts, posters, invitations, and quote-based designs where an informal handwritten voice is desired. It works especially well for headings and brief phrases; for longer passages, giving it extra size and line spacing helps preserve clarity.
The font conveys an upbeat, personable tone—like quick marker lettering on a menu board or a note in a greeting card. Its lively rhythm and soft terminals feel welcoming and informal rather than polished or ceremonial.
The design appears intended to mimic quick brush lettering—confident, slightly imperfect, and personable—balancing readability with a casual handcrafted character for contemporary branding and display use.
Distinctive, narrow capitals and compact lowercase create a strong vertical rhythm, while the brush-like weight makes small counters and tight joins feel dense at smaller sizes. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with rounded shapes and a casual, drawn-on look that pairs well with the letters.
