A lively, handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper into fine hairlines, with rounded turns and occasional teardrop terminals that give the forms a soft, elastic rhythm. Letterforms lean with a gentle forward slant and show variable character widths, producing a natural, hand-drawn cadence. Uppercase shapes are tall and expressive, while lowercase forms use compact bowls and modest connections that keep words readable without becoming overly formal.
Works well for short-to-medium display copy where personality is the priority, such as boutique branding, product labels, café menus, invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It can also add a friendly accent to pull quotes or section headers when paired with a simpler text face.
The overall tone is warm and upbeat, suggesting informal charm rather than polish. Its bouncy curves and soft terminals communicate approachability and a light, conversational personality.
Designed to emulate quick, confident brush lettering with a personable, contemporary script flavor. The emphasis appears to be on expressive capitals, rhythmic stroke contrast, and an easygoing flow that reads as hand-made.
Ascenders and capitals tend to rise prominently above the x-height, creating a distinctive vertical rhythm in mixed-case settings. Spacing looks intentionally organic, with small irregularities that reinforce the handwritten character, especially in paired letters and rounded joins.
