A heavy, brush-like handwritten script with rounded terminals and pronounced stroke modulation. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with a bouncy baseline rhythm and irregular, hand-drawn contours that keep the texture lively rather than mechanical. Connections are fluid through much of the lowercase, while capitals read as bold, simplified forms with soft curves and occasional subtle entry/exit strokes. Counters are small and tight, and curves often swell into teardrop-like joins, emphasizing a warm, inked feel.
Best suited for short to medium display settings where its bold, brushy texture can carry personality—such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, logo wordmarks, and social graphics. It works well when paired with a simpler companion for supporting text to balance its dense, handwritten color.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a casual craft sensibility. Its chunky strokes and energetic rhythm give it a friendly, informal voice suited to lighthearted messaging and personality-driven branding.
Designed to mimic confident marker or brush lettering with a cheerful, handcrafted rhythm. The emphasis appears to be on immediacy and personality—delivering an informal script look that stays legible at display sizes while preserving natural variation.
The font shows noticeable handwritten variability in stroke edges and join shapes, which adds charm but also increases visual density in longer lines. Numerals match the rounded, brushy construction and maintain the same compact, weighty presence as the letters.
