A lively brush-script with a pronounced rightward slant and tapered stroke endings that mimic a felt-tip or brush pen. Strokes stay relatively consistent in weight but show subtle pressure-like modulation, with smooth curves, occasional sharp join points, and open counters. Capitals are tall and gestural with simple swashes and looped entries, while lowercase forms are compact with a noticeably short x-height, long ascenders/descenders, and a bouncy baseline rhythm. Letter connections are implied by flowing entry/exit strokes, giving text a continuous handwritten cadence even when forms don’t fully join.
Well-suited for short display text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—such as logos, packaging accents, café/retail signage, invitations, greeting cards, and social graphics. It also works for pull quotes and headings when paired with a neutral sans or serif for body copy.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick, confident handwriting used to add personality. Its energetic movement and soft terminals read as approachable and upbeat rather than formal or technical.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of handwritten brush lettering in a tidy, repeatable style, balancing expressiveness with clarity. The narrow, slanted forms and high ascenders/descenders aim to create quick visual momentum and a distinctly personal signature-like feel.
Spacing is slightly irregular in a natural, handwritten way, and the narrow proportions help lines feel quick and efficient. Numerals share the same slanted, pen-drawn character, with rounded shapes and simple, legible constructions that match the script’s rhythm.
