A slanted, brush-like print face with thick–thin modulation and softly rounded terminals. Strokes show a tapered, ink-brush behavior with swelling curves and occasional pointed entries, giving letters a lively, hand-drawn rhythm. Counters are generally open, with compact lowercase proportions and a slightly bouncy baseline feel that creates an energetic texture in words.
Works best for short-to-medium display settings where a friendly, handwritten voice is desired—such as branding accents, packaging, posters, and social media graphics. It can also suit pull quotes and section headers where texture and personality are more important than strict formality.
The overall tone is warm, informal, and expressive, with a personable handmade character. Its bold presence and brisk slant read as upbeat and approachable rather than formal, making it feel conversational and modern-craft in spirit.
The design appears intended to mimic confident marker or brush lettering in a clean, repeatable type system. It prioritizes energy and charm through slant, contrast, and rounded, tapered strokes to deliver a bold handwritten presence in display typography.
Capitals are sturdy and simplified with smooth curves, while lowercase forms lean toward quick, gestural constructions that emphasize motion. Numerals follow the same brush logic, mixing rounded bowls with tapered joins for consistent texture across alphanumerics.
