A lively handwritten script with smooth, rounded strokes and gently looping forms. Lettershapes show a steady pen rhythm with moderate stroke modulation and softened terminals, giving the linework a clean, modern hand-drawn feel. Proportions are compact and slightly narrow, with tall ascenders/descenders and a relatively small lowercase body that helps the capitals and loops stand out. Spacing feels natural and irregular in a controlled way, emphasizing an organic, written texture while remaining legible in words and short phrases.
Well suited to short to medium-length text where a friendly human touch is desired—packaging callouts, boutique branding, café menus, greeting cards, invitations, social media graphics, and pull quotes. It also works effectively for headings and subheads when paired with a neutral sans or serif for body copy.
The overall tone is personable and upbeat, like neat marker lettering or a casual note written with care. Its buoyant curves and friendly loops create a welcoming, approachable voice that reads as informal and cheerful rather than formal or editorial.
Designed to capture the charm of everyday cursive handwriting in a polished, repeatable form. The intent appears to balance organic, hand-drawn personality with enough consistency and clarity to perform reliably in display applications.
Capitals are simple and open with occasional flourish, while lowercase forms maintain a consistent, flowing motion that supports quick recognition in running text. Numerals match the handwritten character with rounded shapes and simple construction, fitting naturally alongside the letters.
