A lively handwritten script with smooth, looping strokes and a gently bouncy baseline rhythm. Letterforms are built from narrow, rounded shapes with mostly even stroke weight and occasional thick–thin modulation at curves and joins. Ascenders are tall and prominent, while lowercase bodies stay small, giving the design a high-contrast silhouette between x-height and extenders. Terminals are soft and slightly tapered, with frequent entry/exit strokes that create an easy cursive flow without being rigidly connected in every pair.
Works best for short-form display uses such as headings, greetings, invitations, product labels, and quote graphics where its loops and tall extenders can be appreciated. It can also suit light branding accents or UI badges when set with generous leading to accommodate the long ascenders and descenders.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, like neat marker or pen lettering used for informal notes and cheerful headlines. Its looping joins and buoyant proportions feel inviting and lighthearted rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to capture a clean, approachable handwritten voice—smooth and rhythmic, with enough consistency for repeatable typesetting while retaining a personal, drawn-by-hand character.
Capitals lean toward simplified, handwritten print forms that pair comfortably with the more cursive lowercase, creating a casual mixed-style texture. Spacing appears open enough for readability in short lines, while the tall extenders and looping descenders add decorative movement that becomes more prominent at larger sizes.
