A tall, right-leaning handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and clean, confident strokes. Letterforms are narrow and upright in structure but consistently slanted, with long ascenders/descenders and a compact lowercase body that creates an airy line rhythm. Strokes show subtle pressure modulation (especially in curved joins and terminals) and tapered ends, giving a quick, natural flow without heavy texture. Connections are intermittent rather than fully continuous, balancing cursive momentum with readable, discrete shapes.
Well suited for short-to-medium display text where a casual handwritten voice is desired—brand marks, product labels, posters, social graphics, and pull quotes. It can also work for light editorial accents or invitations when used with generous spacing and supportive body text in a more neutral companion face.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick marker lettering used for notes, packaging, or social captions. Its narrow, brisk rhythm adds energy, while the smooth loops and soft terminals keep it approachable and friendly rather than formal.
Designed to capture the speed and charm of brush handwriting in a polished, repeatable form. The narrow proportions and tall extenders suggest an intention to fit more characters per line while retaining a lively, personal cadence.
Caps are simplified and slightly looped, functioning well as attention-getting initials without overpowering the lowercase. Numerals match the handwritten character, with simple forms and consistent slant that sit naturally alongside text.
