A slanted, brush-pen script with fluid joins and intermittent breaks that mimic quick handwriting. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with tapered entry and exit strokes, and rounded turns that keep the texture soft. Letterforms are compact with tight internal counters and a lively baseline that gently rises and dips, creating an energetic rhythm. Capitals are more flourishy and open, while lowercase forms stay streamlined for continuous word shapes; spacing is slightly irregular in a natural, hand-drawn way.
Well-suited for short-to-medium display settings such as logos, boutique branding, labels, and packaging where a handwritten voice is desirable. It also works effectively for social posts, greeting cards, invitations, and pull quotes, especially when paired with a clean sans for supporting text.
The overall tone feels personable and upbeat, like an informal note written with a felt-tip or brush pen. Its looping forms and smooth swashes add a light romantic touch without becoming overly ornate, giving it an approachable, contemporary handmade character.
Designed to capture the immediacy of modern brush lettering: expressive contrast, quick cursive flow, and friendly readability in headline sizes. The emphasis appears to be on natural rhythm and an authentic handwritten feel rather than strict geometric consistency.
The font leans on connected cursive behavior but allows occasional unconnected strokes, which helps prevent long words from feeling overly tangled. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple, rounded forms and consistent modulation, keeping mixed text cohesive.
