A brush-pen style with rounded terminals and subtly tapered strokes that suggest pressure variation without becoming overly ornate. The letterforms are slightly irregular in width and rhythm, giving an organic, handwritten cadence while remaining fairly consistent across the set. Curves are generous and open, counters are roomy, and many joins have soft, painted transitions rather than crisp mechanical corners. Capitals feel broad and gesture-driven, while lowercase maintains a compact, slightly low x-height look with lively ascenders and descenders.
Works best for display-sized text where its brush texture and rhythmic variation can be appreciated—such as posters, packaging callouts, social graphics, and greeting-card style messaging. It can also suit short subheads or pull quotes when you want a conversational, handcrafted note.
The overall tone is approachable and upbeat, with a personable “written with a marker” energy. It reads as casual and friendly rather than formal, adding a human touch and a bit of playful bounce to headlines and short phrases.
Designed to evoke hand-lettered brush writing with controlled legibility: expressive strokes, friendly curves, and a lightly calligraphic structure that feels personal without becoming overly decorative.
Spacing and stroke flow favor natural movement over strict uniformity, producing a gently uneven texture that feels authentic. Numerals share the same brushy modulation and rounded construction, keeping the set cohesive in mixed alphanumeric settings.
