A lively handwritten script with a tall, slender build and a springy baseline rhythm. Strokes read as pen- or brush-drawn, with subtle pressure changes and frequent tapering into pointed terminals. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, mixing open counters with occasional tight loops, and showing informal, slightly irregular spacing that reinforces the hand-rendered character. Capitals are simplified and narrow with long vertical emphasis, while many lowercase forms rely on single-stroke constructions and quick joins.
Works best for short to medium lines such as social posts, invitations, greeting cards, product tags, and packaging callouts where a human, handcrafted voice is desired. It also suits logos or brand accents when paired with a quieter sans or serif for supporting text.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick notes or hand-lettered captions. Its bouncy movement and wiry strokes give it a playful, slightly quirky energy while still staying readable at display sizes.
Designed to capture the immediacy of handwritten cursive—quick strokes, natural variation, and expressive loops—while maintaining enough consistency for set phrases and punchy headlines.
Ascenders and descenders are prominent relative to the compact lowercase body, creating an airy midline and a strongly vertical silhouette. Joins vary from smooth to slightly broken, which adds texture and authenticity but can look busy when tightly tracked or set too small.
