A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel, mixing smooth curves with slightly flattened terminals. Strokes are mostly monoline with subtle pressure shifts, and the forms lean forward with a quick, continuous rhythm. Letterfit is compact, with tall ascenders/descenders and small lowercase bodies that create a high, airy vertical cadence. Curves are generously rounded, and many joins are implied rather than rigidly connected, giving the texture a natural, written-on-the-fly consistency.
Works best for short to medium text where a personal, friendly voice is desired—social posts, lifestyle packaging, café menus, event invitations, and pull quotes. It’s especially effective in display sizes, where the looping descenders and brisk slant can provide personality without sacrificing overall legibility.
The font reads as warm and informal, like personal notes or casual branding copy. Its springy motion and soft edges add a playful confidence without becoming overly decorative, keeping the tone conversational and human.
Designed to capture the feel of quick brush handwriting in a clean, repeatable type system—expressive and informal, but controlled enough for branding and display typography.
Uppercase characters are simplified and gesture-driven, pairing well with the more fluid lowercase. Distinctive loops appear in letters like g, y, and j, and the numerals share the same handwritten tempo with open, easy-to-scan shapes.
