A rounded, brush-like script with a bouncy baseline and gently irregular rhythm that keeps the lettering feeling hand-made while remaining consistent. Strokes are thick and low-contrast with softened terminals and occasional teardrop-like ends, giving the forms a cushioned, inked look. The lowercase is largely connected with smooth joins and looping ascenders/descenders, while the uppercase mixes simple, signpainter-style blocky forms with a few more calligraphic gestures for emphasis. Counters are compact and curves are slightly squashed, producing a sturdy silhouette that reads best at medium to large sizes.
Works especially well for branding and packaging that benefits from a friendly, hand-drawn voice, as well as posters, quotes, and social media graphics where personality is more important than dense readability. It can also suit menus, café signage, and playful event materials when used in short to medium-length text.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, like hand-lettered packaging or a cheerful storefront sign. Its rounded weight and buoyant motion lend a nostalgic, mid-century casual feel without becoming overly formal.
Designed to capture the charm of hand-lettered brush script while staying bold and clear enough for display use. The mix of connected lowercase and simplified, punchy capitals suggests an intention to provide expressive emphasis in titles and brand marks while keeping an informal, welcoming character.
Letter widths vary noticeably, creating an organic texture in words and a lively color across lines of text. Numerals and capitals share the same soft, inked construction, making the set feel cohesive for headlines, short phrases, and branded messaging.
