A lively handwritten script with a right-leaning, brush-pen rhythm and softly rounded terminals. Strokes are smooth and moderately contrasted, with pressure-like thickening on curves and downstrokes and lighter connecting motion on turns. The letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with a relatively low x-height and tall, expressive ascenders/descenders. Width and spacing vary organically from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a natural, drawn feel while maintaining consistent baseline behavior and readable counters.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where a friendly handwritten tone is desired, such as packaging, invitations, greeting cards, social media graphics, and quote-based layouts. It also works effectively for posters and display lines when you want an informal, personal touch without sacrificing legibility.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick but confident handwriting. Its bouncy curves and generous loops create a personable, upbeat voice that feels contemporary and handcrafted rather than formal or calligraphic.
Designed to emulate casual brush handwriting with an energetic slant and natural variation, aiming for an expressive script that feels human and contemporary. The emphasis appears to be on charm and momentum—clear letter recognition paired with playful stroke movement for standout titles and personable messaging.
Capitals are especially gestural and distinctive, often built from single sweeping strokes that introduce a headline-like personality. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, with simple, rounded shapes and slight irregularities that match the script texture.
