A compact, right-slanted script with brush-pen behavior and subtly tapered terminals. Strokes show moderate thick–thin change, with rounded joins, occasional sharp entry points, and open counters that keep forms readable despite the tight proportions. Uppercase letters are more decorative, featuring prominent loops and swash-like strokes, while the lowercase is simpler and more rhythmic with short ascenders and a notably small x-height. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, mixing smooth curves and quick angled strokes for an informal, consistent texture in lines of text.
Works best for short to medium-length display text where personality is the goal—such as logos, product packaging, poster headlines, and social media graphics. The ornate capitals can add emphasis in initials or brand names, while the compact lowercase supports punchy taglines and subheads.
The overall tone is informal and personable, with a lively, quick handwritten rhythm. Its looping capitals and brushy strokes evoke a relaxed, slightly retro sign-painter feel that reads as warm and expressive rather than formal or technical.
Designed to mimic quick, confident brush handwriting with a clear rightward slant and decorative capital forms. The intent appears to balance expressiveness with legibility, providing a script that feels handmade and energetic while remaining usable in common display settings.
Letterforms maintain a steady forward motion and a slightly compressed footprint, producing a dark, cohesive line when set in words. The contrast appears driven by pen angle and pressure, giving thicker downstrokes and lighter connecting strokes, with occasional flourish in capitals that can act as visual anchors in titles.
