A fluid, brush-pen script with a consistent forward slant and lightly tapered stroke endings. Letterforms are rounded and loop-driven, with smooth joins and a quick, handwritten rhythm rather than rigid calligraphic construction. Capitals are simple and slightly taller, leaning toward understated swashes, while lowercase forms stay compact with short bodies and frequent entry/exit strokes that encourage connection. Overall spacing is fairly tight, giving words a continuous, flowing silhouette.
Works best for short-to-medium display copy where a human touch is desirable—logos, boutique branding, packaging labels, social posts, greeting cards, and invitations. It can also suit pull quotes and headings, especially when paired with a neutral sans for body text.
The tone reads informal and personable, like neat handwritten signage or a quick signature. Its energetic curves and soft terminals create an approachable, upbeat feel that can also lean slightly romantic when set larger.
Designed to capture an easy, contemporary cursive look with the feel of a brush marker—smooth, connected, and legible at display sizes while maintaining the spontaneity of real handwriting.
The design favors speed and continuity: many shapes are built from single, confident gestures, and counters stay small and teardrop-like in places. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with rounded forms and minimal ornament, helping them blend naturally into mixed text.
