A lively, brush-pen script with a forward slant and rounded terminals. Strokes are thick and smooth with minimal contrast, giving letters a solid, inked feel and clear, continuous rhythm. Forms are compact and slightly condensed, with tight counters and an overall bouncy baseline that keeps the texture animated in words. Uppercase shapes are simplified and swashy without becoming overly ornate, and numerals follow the same handwritten logic with sturdy, curved silhouettes.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where personality is the priority: headlines, logos and wordmarks, product packaging, posters, invitations, and social graphics. It can also work for pull quotes or short passages at comfortable sizes, where the dense strokes and compact spacing remain readable.
The tone is informal and upbeat, like quick confident lettering made for attention rather than formality. Its buoyant curves and dense stroke weight convey warmth and approachability, while the slant and brisk joins add momentum that reads as energetic and conversational.
Designed to capture the look of bold brush handwriting in a polished, repeatable form. The intent is to provide a confident, friendly script that feels personal and handmade while holding together as a cohesive display face in contemporary branding and promotional typography.
Letter connections appear natural in running text, with joins that stay smooth and avoid sharp breaks. The texture is intentionally irregular in small ways—stroke endings, entry strokes, and proportions vary just enough to feel hand-drawn while remaining consistent across the set.
