A compact, right-leaning script with a brush-pen feel and rounded terminals. Strokes show gentle swelling and tapering that suggests pressure changes, with smooth joins and occasional lifted connections that keep word shapes lively. Ascenders are tall and narrow, counters are small, and curves are drawn with a soft, slightly springy rhythm that maintains legibility despite the condensed proportions. Numerals match the handwritten flow, with simple forms and consistent stroke weight.
Works well for short, attention-grabbing text where an approachable handmade voice is desired—such as social posts, labels, café or boutique branding, invitations, and poster headlines. The condensed build helps fit longer phrases into narrow spaces, though it will read best at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick but confident marker lettering. Its narrow, lively rhythm reads upbeat and personable, lending a handcrafted character that feels modern-retro rather than formal.
Designed to emulate fast, stylish brush handwriting with a compact footprint, balancing expressive cursive movement with a controlled, repeatable structure for consistent display use.
Capitals are simplified and slanted to align with the script’s forward motion, while lowercase forms rely on loops and angled entry/exit strokes to maintain momentum across words. The texture stays smooth and even, avoiding scratchiness, with emphasis coming from stroke mass and tight spacing rather than sharp contrast.
