A lively handwritten print with a brush-pen feel, built from rounded, slightly tapered strokes and soft terminals. Letterforms lean consistently and show subtle stroke modulation, with a buoyant baseline and small irregularities that keep the texture human rather than mechanical. Counters are fairly open and shapes are simplified, with compact lowercase proportions and a clear, readable rhythm in running text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where an informal, personal voice is needed—brand marks, packaging callouts, café or event signage, posters, and social media graphics. It can also work for friendly headings and pull quotes, where its brushy texture adds warmth without sacrificing readability.
The tone is warm and upbeat, like quick marker lettering on a note or menu board. Its energetic slant and soft, rounded forms convey ease and friendliness, with a playful confidence that feels personal and conversational.
The design appears aimed at delivering a casual, hand-lettered look with consistent slant and rhythm, capturing the speed and softness of a brush marker while keeping letterforms clean enough for everyday display use.
The set balances legibility with hand-made character: joins are smooth, curves are generous, and many letters carry slight entry/exit flicks typical of brush writing. Uppercase has a casual, handwritten presence rather than a formal display structure, and numerals match the same brisk, rounded stroke logic.
