A lively brush-script with unconnected, italic-leaning letterforms and a broad, pressure-driven stroke. Strokes are rounded and slightly tapered at terminals, with occasional blunt ends that add a painted texture. The rhythm is bouncy and irregular in a controlled way, mixing open counters with compact joins and giving the alphabet a handwritten spontaneity while maintaining consistent overall weight and slant. Numerals follow the same brush logic, with soft curves and simplified forms built for quick, gestural writing.
Works best for short to medium text where personality is the goal: logos, brand accents, packaging, posters, social graphics, and quote-style headlines. It can also serve as a secondary display face paired with a clean sans for contrast in contemporary layouts.
The tone is warm and upbeat, leaning toward friendly and approachable rather than formal or precise. Its quick, marker-like movement suggests human presence and informality, making it feel personal, conversational, and a little playful.
Likely designed to mimic confident brush lettering in a clean, repeatable type system—capturing the spontaneity of hand-painted strokes while staying legible and cohesive across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Capitals are expressive and prominent, with sweeping curves and occasional loop-like shapes that help headlines stand out. Spacing reads fairly tight and active, which reinforces the fast handwritten feel, especially in longer lines of text.
