A casual handwritten script with smooth, ink-like strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letters show a steady baseline with a lively, slightly bouncy rhythm and frequent looped forms, especially in the lowercase. Strokes feel largely monoline with gentle swelling at curves, and spacing is open enough to keep the texture light, even as many lowercase characters connect naturally. Capitals are simple and tall, reading like hand-drawn print that pairs cleanly with the more cursive lowercase.
Well suited for short to medium-length display text where a friendly, handmade personality is desired—logos, product labels, invitations, greeting cards, and social graphics. It can also work for pull quotes or headers in lifestyle content, where the airy rhythm and connected lowercase help create a conversational feel.
The overall tone is warm and personable, like neat marker lettering used for notes, packaging, or classroom-style headlines. Its looping joins and relaxed proportions give it an upbeat, informal voice without becoming messy or overly expressive.
Designed to emulate tidy everyday handwriting with clean loops and consistent strokes, balancing charm with readability. The mix of straightforward capitals and flowing lowercase suggests a goal of versatile, approachable display typography for modern casual communication.
Ascenders and descenders are prominent, creating a tall silhouette and adding charm in words with g, j, y, and f. Numerals match the handwritten feel with simple shapes and rounded corners, staying consistent with the letterforms.
