A lively handwritten script with smooth, brush-like strokes and pronounced contrast between thicker downstrokes and finer connecting lines. Letterforms are narrow and upright, with rounded terminals, occasional tapering, and a gently irregular rhythm that keeps the texture organic. The lowercase is built around simple loops and partial joins, with compact counters and a relatively modest x-height compared to the ascenders, while caps read as simplified, sign-like strokes rather than formal calligraphy. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, mixing open curves and slender joins for a cohesive, casual set.
Well suited for short to medium display text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—logos, packaging callouts, boutique branding, invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It can also work for pull quotes and headers when you want an informal, personal accent, especially at larger sizes where the thin joins and high-contrast details remain clear.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a buoyant, personal feel reminiscent of neat marker lettering or a quick brush-pen note. Its slightly quirky proportions and soft curves give it a charming, handmade personality suited to informal, human-centered messaging.
Designed to evoke casual cursive handwriting with a brush-pen flavor—clean enough to read, but intentionally imperfect to preserve a handmade, personable character. The narrow, upright stance and looping forms suggest an aim for cheerful legibility in headline and decorative applications rather than extended body text.
Some letters show deliberate simplification and occasional stroke breaks, which enhances the hand-rendered authenticity and keeps repeated text from feeling overly mechanical. Spacing and widths vary subtly across glyphs, contributing to a natural, written cadence.
