A slanted, brush-like script with thick, rounded strokes and visibly textured edges that mimic rough ink on paper. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, with a lively baseline and variable stroke terminals that taper and blob in places. Counters are compact and the overall rhythm is bouncy, with soft curves, occasional chunky joins, and subtle irregularities that keep the texture consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for display applications where texture and personality are assets: posters, product packaging, café or craft branding, social graphics, and short quote-style typography. It can also work for subheads or emphasis in editorial layouts when paired with a cleaner text face for longer reading.
The font conveys an easygoing, handmade personality—warm, slightly rugged, and energetic. Its inky texture and casual slant suggest analog craft, giving headlines and short phrases a friendly, lived-in charm rather than a polished or corporate feel.
Designed to emulate expressive brush lettering with a deliberately imperfect print texture, balancing legibility with a handcrafted look. The goal appears to be quick, personable impact—like marker or paint-brush signage—while keeping a consistent weight and flow across the character set.
Uppercase forms lean toward simplified, rounded shapes that read clearly at display sizes, while lowercase letters have more cursive motion and variability. Numerals follow the same brushy construction and rounded terminals, maintaining a cohesive tone across mixed text.
