A lively handwritten script with a monoline, marker-like stroke and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms lean forward with an energetic rhythm, mixing gentle loops with occasional sharp turns, and showing natural-looking irregularities in width, joins, and stroke endings. Capitals are tall and simple with open bowls and minimal ornament, while lowercase forms stay compact and nimble, with tall ascenders and looping descenders that add movement. Overall spacing is a bit loose and organic, reinforcing a drawn-by-hand texture rather than strict typographic uniformity.
Well-suited to short to medium display text where a friendly, handmade voice is desirable—greeting cards, invitations, product labels, café menus, posters, and social media graphics. It also works for pull quotes and headers where legibility can be supported by generous size and spacing.
The font reads as personable and informal, like quick notes written with a felt-tip pen. Its bouncy cadence and slightly quirky shapes give it a cheerful, conversational tone that feels warm and human rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to capture the look of fast, confident handwriting with a pen/marker tool, prioritizing personality and flow over strict repetition. The forms aim for an easygoing script presence that feels spontaneous and personable in display contexts.
Connections between letters appear intermittent—some pairs flow together while others break—creating a semi-connected handwriting feel. Numerals follow the same casual logic, with simple, open shapes that match the script’s relaxed rhythm and slightly uneven baseline behavior.
