A casual handwritten script with smooth, rounded strokes and a lightly bouncy baseline. Letterforms show a marker-like, mostly monoline rhythm with subtle pressure variation, soft terminals, and occasional looped constructions (notably in descenders). Uppercase characters read as simplified, print-influenced forms, while lowercase leans more cursive, with intermittent joining and flowing entry/exit strokes. Proportions are compact with tall ascenders, generous curves, and open counters that keep the texture airy despite the narrow footprint.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a friendly handwritten feel is desired—packaging callouts, café menus, invitations, greeting cards, quotes, and social posts. It can also serve as an accent face paired with a neutral sans for headings, pull quotes, or brand taglines where personality is more important than strict uniformity.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, like quick, neat handwriting on a note or label. Its irregularities feel intentional and personable rather than rough, giving it a cheerful, conversational voice suitable for informal messaging.
Designed to capture the ease of everyday pen lettering while remaining consistent enough for repeated use in branding and display settings. The mix of print-like capitals with more cursive lowercase suggests an aim for legibility first, with handwritten charm added through loops, bounce, and soft stroke endings.
Spacing and widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, which enhances the handwritten authenticity and gives words a slightly uneven, organic cadence. Numerals match the same rounded, drawn-by-hand character and sit comfortably alongside the letters without looking overly mechanical.
