A slanted, rounded sans with a smooth, brushlike stroke and softened terminals throughout. Letterforms are built from broad curves and gentle joins, with modest modulation and a slightly variable rhythm that keeps counters open and shapes legible. Proportions lean wide in several capitals and rounded letters, while the overall texture stays even thanks to consistent stroke weight and clean, uncluttered forms. Numerals match the same easy, curved construction and sit comfortably alongside the letters.
Well suited to friendly branding, product packaging, posters, and headline settings where an informal, human tone is desired. It also works nicely for pull quotes, invitations, and social graphics, especially when you want a soft, approachable voice without going fully script.
The font conveys an upbeat, approachable tone—more personable than formal—suggesting quick marker or brush writing translated into tidy typographic shapes. Its lively slant and rounded forms give it a cheerful, conversational feel that reads as modern-casual rather than technical or corporate.
The design appears intended to blend the warmth of casual handwriting with the clarity of a simplified sans structure. Its goal is to provide an expressive, energetic italic voice that remains clean and consistent enough for everyday display typography.
Curved letters (like C, G, S, and O) emphasize smooth circularity, while diagonals (such as V, W, X, and Y) keep a slightly springy, energetic stance. The overall character is cohesive and readable in short text, with a distinctive handwritten flavor that becomes more prominent as size increases.
