A brush-driven script with an upright-to-forward slant, rounded terminals, and visibly modulated strokes that shift from thick downstrokes to thinner connecting hairlines. Forms are compact with a relatively low x-height and tall ascenders/descenders, giving the line a buoyant rhythm. Letter shapes are simplified and open, with soft curves, occasional spur-like joins, and a slightly irregular baseline that reinforces a hand-drawn feel. Numerals are similarly rounded and somewhat narrow, matching the overall bounce and contrast.
Well-suited to branding accents, packaging, café or boutique signage, and poster headlines where an expressive handwritten voice is desired. It also works for short quotes, invitations, and social media graphics, especially when set with generous spacing and paired with a simpler text face for longer copy.
The tone is warm and informal, with a confident, energetic brush gesture that feels approachable rather than polished. Its lively movement and soft edges suggest a cheerful, handmade character with a lightly retro craft sensibility.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of brush lettering while keeping letterforms consistent enough for repeatable typesetting. The intent appears to balance expressive stroke contrast and a bouncy rhythm with legibility in display contexts.
Connectivity varies across letters: some join cleanly while others read as semi-connected, which helps maintain clarity in mixed-case settings. The heavier strokes and compact counters make it strongest at medium to larger sizes, where its texture and stroke contrast can be appreciated.
