A compact, right-leaning handwritten print with a brush-pen feel and thick, rounded strokes. Forms are simplified and slightly condensed, with softly tapered terminals and occasional swelling where strokes turn, giving a natural marker/brush rhythm. Curves are smooth and open, counters stay legible, and the overall texture reads dark and even despite subtle hand-drawn irregularities. Letter spacing is moderate and the set maintains consistent slant and stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Works best for short, high-impact text where a friendly handwritten personality is desired—posters, café/food packaging, event promos, social graphics, and brand accents. It can also serve for brief subheads or pull quotes, especially when you want an informal, energetic tone without fully connected script lettering.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, with a spontaneous, human touch that feels conversational rather than formal. Its brisk slant and confident stroke weight add energy, making lines of text feel animated and personable.
Designed to capture the immediacy of quick brush lettering in an unconnected, print-like structure—prioritizing warmth, speed, and visual punch while staying straightforward to read in display contexts.
Uppercase shapes are streamlined and slightly calligraphic in movement, while lowercase stays simple and readable with single-storey constructions. Numerals match the same brushy, rounded logic and sit comfortably with the letters, reinforcing an overall cohesive, handwritten voice.
