A lively, slanted script with brush-pen energy and smooth, rounded forms. Strokes stay relatively even in thickness, with soft terminals and occasional tapered entries that suggest a fast, confident hand. Letterforms mix open loops and compact counters, with generous ascenders/descenders and a rhythm that alternates between tight joins and small breaks. Capitals are more flourishy and gestural, while lowercase keeps a compact body with tall extenders, creating a bouncy baseline texture in words.
Well-suited to short to medium text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—logos, product labels, café/food branding, greeting cards, invitations, and social media graphics. It can also work for pull quotes and headings, especially when paired with a clean sans serif for body copy.
The font reads as informal and personable, with a spontaneous, handwritten charm. Its quick, swooping strokes and looping capitals add a playful sense of motion, making text feel conversational rather than formal.
Designed to capture the look of quick brush handwriting with enough consistency for repeated use, balancing smooth cursive flow with expressive capitals and tall extenders to keep headlines energetic and distinctive.
Numerals follow the same cursive logic, with rounded shapes and a handwritten irregularity that keeps them consistent with the letters. In longer lines, the connectedness varies, which adds authenticity but also introduces a bit of visual sparkle and uneven word color.
