A brush-pen cursive with chunky, ink-rich downstrokes and tapered entry/exit strokes that create pronounced stroke modulation. Letterforms are upright with a bouncy baseline rhythm, rounded counters, and softly irregular contours that preserve a hand-drawn feel. Connections are occasional rather than fully continuous, with simple joins and compact spacing that keeps words cohesive. Capitals are tall and decorative, while lowercase forms stay compact with small bowls and short ascenders, contributing to a tight, energetic texture.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as headlines, logos, labels, and display copy where the brush texture can be appreciated. It also works well for packaging, invitations, and social graphics that want an artisanal, hand-lettered look; use generous size and breathing room for maximum clarity.
The tone is warm and informal, like hand-lettered signage or a journal heading made with a brush marker. Its lively stroke shifts and slightly uneven edges give it an approachable, crafty personality that feels playful and a bit rustic rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic quick brush calligraphy—pairing thick, confident strokes with thin, flicked terminals to capture the spontaneity of hand lettering. Its compact proportions and animated rhythm suggest a focus on expressive display use over extended reading.
Distinctive swashes appear in several capitals and in letters with descenders, adding motion without becoming overly ornate. Numerals follow the same brush logic, mixing heavy verticals with thin hairline turns for a cohesive, handmade set.
