A brush-pen style script with a pronounced rightward slant and compact proportions. Strokes show clear pressure modulation and tapered terminals, with occasional ink-like wobble that keeps the rhythm lively and hand-made. Lowercase forms lean toward connected cursive behavior with generous loops and smooth joins, while capitals are more stand-alone, simplified, and slightly taller, creating a clear hierarchy. Counters are relatively tight and the overall texture is dense, producing a strong, dark color in lines of text.
Well-suited to short, expressive copy where a human voice is desired—logos, product labels, café menus, posters, and social graphics. It performs best at display sizes or for brief headlines, where the dense brush texture and cursive movement remain clear and intentional.
The font reads as upbeat and personable, like quick marker lettering on packaging or a note written with a felt brush pen. Its rounded curves and springy movement give it a welcoming, informal tone that feels contemporary and craft-oriented rather than formal calligraphy.
Designed to simulate confident brush handwriting with lively cursive flow and strong visual presence. The goal appears to be an informal, modern script that adds warmth and momentum to headlines and brand phrases without the delicacy of formal calligraphy.
Several letters use distinctive loop constructions (notably in the descenders and in characters like g, y, and z), and the numerals follow the same handwritten logic with soft curves and tapered ends. The stroke edges look slightly textured rather than mechanically perfect, reinforcing the drawn-by-hand impression.
