A lively, brush-pen script with a consistent rightward slant and compact proportions. Strokes show a smooth, marker-like flow with tapered terminals and occasional thickened downstrokes that create a subtle calligraphic rhythm. Letterforms are narrow and quick, with simplified joins and open counters that keep shapes readable despite the informal construction. Capitals are tall and gestural, while lowercase forms stay compact with short extenders and a relatively low profile, giving words a tight, fast cadence.
Works well for short to medium-length display text where an informal, human voice is desired—brand marks, packaging callouts, poster headlines, and social content. It can also suit quotes or invitations when set with generous spacing and paired with a simpler companion for body text.
The overall tone feels spontaneous and personable, like quick handwriting made with a felt-tip or brush pen. It reads as upbeat and approachable, with enough texture and movement to feel handmade rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to emulate quick, confident brush handwriting with a compact footprint and strong forward motion. The intention appears to balance expressive flair with practical legibility for display use.
The glyph set shown maintains a coherent stroke angle and pressure pattern, with slight irregularities that add character. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, leaning and tapering similarly to the letters, which helps mixed text feel unified.
