A slanted, marker-like script with softly tapered stroke endings and a fluid, drawn-by-hand rhythm. Strokes show moderate variation, with heavier downstrokes and lighter connecting turns, and many letters feature open counters and rounded terminals. Uppercase forms are large and expressive with simplified, calligraphic shapes, while lowercase is compact with a comparatively short x-height and occasional joining behavior that reads as quick handwriting rather than formal calligraphy. Numerals follow the same gestural construction, with simple curves and consistent stroke texture.
Best suited for short to medium-length display text where a casual, human touch is desired—such as branding marks, packaging callouts, posters, social content, invitations, and pull quotes. It can work for UI accents or labels, but the lively stroke texture and compact lowercase suggest avoiding long body copy.
The overall tone feels warm and informal, like quick notes written with a felt-tip pen. Its buoyant curves and energetic slant create an approachable, upbeat voice that reads as personal and conversational.
Designed to emulate fast, confident handwriting with a brush-pen feel, balancing readability with expressive, personal flair. The intent appears to be an informal script that brings warmth and energy to headlines and brand messaging without looking overly ornate.
Letterforms maintain a consistent angle and stroke texture, but retain natural irregularities in width and spacing that reinforce the handwritten character. The script stays legible at display sizes, with distinctive capitals and clear word shapes driven by the italic rhythm and looping ascenders/descenders.
