A light, brush-pen style script with a pronounced rightward slant and lively, handwritten rhythm. Strokes taper into fine terminals with occasional thicker downstrokes, creating a soft, calligraphic contrast without feeling formal. Letterforms are compact and narrow, with long ascenders and descenders that add vertical elegance; spacing and widths vary naturally as in quick handwriting. Connection behavior is cursive in feel, with many shapes designed to flow into the next, while still remaining readable at display sizes.
Well-suited for short, expressive text such as brand marks, product packaging accents, social posts, quotes, and invitation-style headlines. It performs best where its delicate strokes and cursive flow can remain clear—used at moderate to larger sizes or with ample contrast against the background.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, conveying an informal, conversational warmth. Its looping forms and smooth motion feel modern and approachable rather than classic or ceremonial, giving text a human, signature-like character.
Designed to emulate quick, fluent handwriting with brush-like tapering and natural variation, prioritizing personality and motion over rigid uniformity. The narrow proportions and tall extenders help create an elegant line while keeping an easy, everyday feel.
Capitals are tall and gestural with sweeping entry/exit strokes, while lowercase forms favor open bowls and simplified joins that keep words moving forward. Numerals share the same handwritten energy, with smooth curves and slender stems that match the script’s light touch.
