A compact, slanted script with a brush-pen feel and predominantly monoline strokes. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with rounded terminals, soft curves, and occasional looped entries and exits that suggest quick handwritten motion. Capitals are larger and more gestural than the lowercase, featuring open bowls and sweeping curves, while the lowercase keeps tight proportions with short extenders and a compact internal rhythm. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, mixing simple strokes with rounded forms for a cohesive set.
Well suited for short, expressive text such as logos, headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and social media graphics where a personal touch is desired. It also works for quote cards, invitations, and labels when set at display sizes where its tight proportions and lively rhythm remain clear.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with an informal, conversational energy. Its brisk rhythm and brushlike curves give it a lightly retro, sign-painter-adjacent character that feels personable rather than formal.
Designed to capture the look of fast, confident handwriting made with a brush pen, balancing legibility with expressive movement. The narrow, compact construction suggests an intent to fit energetic script into tighter horizontal spaces while keeping a bold, graphic presence.
The texture stays visually consistent across the alphabet, with subtle stroke swelling that reads as pen pressure rather than constructed contrast. Spacing and joins feel intentionally irregular in a natural way, helping the font maintain a handwritten authenticity in longer words and pangrams.
