A slanted, brush-pen script with rounded terminals and subtly tapered strokes. The letterforms lean consistently to the right and show a lively baseline bounce, with occasional stroke swelling that suggests pressure changes rather than strict calligraphic construction. Capitals are simplified and loop-leaning, while lowercase forms stay compact with short ascenders/descenders and open counters; joins are suggested by the handwriting rhythm even when characters don’t fully connect. Numerals match the handwritten feel, with soft curves and slightly irregular widths that reinforce an organic, drawn texture.
Works well for short to medium-length display copy such as logos, product labels, cafe menus, posters, social graphics, invitations, and quote treatments where a personal, handwritten voice is desired. It’s best used at sizes where the rounded joins and brush modulation remain clear.
The font reads as warm and informal, with an energetic, conversational tone. Its smooth curves and buoyant rhythm give it a personable, optimistic feel suited to friendly messaging rather than formal or technical contexts.
Designed to emulate quick, confident handwriting with a brush-pen flavor—prioritizing charm, motion, and readability over strict uniformity. The compact proportions and buoyant rhythm aim to deliver a personable script that feels contemporary and easygoing.
Spacing appears intentionally loose enough to preserve individual letter shapes, and the overall texture stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The stroke endings look slightly blunted, enhancing the brush-script impression and keeping the silhouette soft rather than sharp.
