A lively, hand-drawn calligraphic text face with gently tapered strokes and subtle thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are slightly irregular in width and curvature, creating an organic rhythm while maintaining clear, upright structure. Terminals often come to soft points or brush-like flicks, and bowls tend to be open and rounded. The overall texture is airy and crisp, with modest stroke contrast and a consistent pen/brush feel across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
This face works well for short-to-medium text where a human, crafted voice is desirable—such as book covers, greeting cards, invitations, boutique packaging, café menus, and display copy in posters. It’s best used at sizes where the stroke tapering and subtle irregularities can be appreciated, and where a personable tone is more important than strict typographic neutrality.
The font conveys a friendly, whimsical tone—like neat handwriting made with a flexible pen. Its small flourishes and unevenness add charm and personality, giving it a storybook or artisanal mood rather than a strict, formal one.
The design appears intended to capture the look of carefully drawn, unconnected calligraphic letters—balancing legibility with expressive, brush-like terminals and a gently playful rhythm. It aims to feel handmade and personable while staying structured enough for practical reading.
Capitals have a simple, slightly decorative presence with curved entries and occasional spur-like terminals, while lowercase forms keep a readable, conversational flow. Numerals match the hand-rendered character, with curved, calligraphic shaping and light, flicked endings that keep them from feeling mechanical.
