A brisk, handwritten script with a rightward slant and a brush-pen feel. Strokes show subtle width modulation and slightly rough, inked edges, giving the forms a natural, drawn-on-paper texture. Letterforms are compact and narrow overall with a lively baseline bounce; connections appear frequently in lowercase while remaining loose and not strictly continuous. Counters are small and rounded, terminals are soft and tapered, and capitals read as simplified, gestural print forms that pair cleanly with the flowing lowercase.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display text such as quotes, posters, invitations, labels, and lifestyle branding where a human touch is desired. It can also work for headers or pull quotes in editorial and digital layouts, especially when paired with a neutral sans or serif for body copy.
The tone is warm and personable, like quick note-taking with a felt-tip or brush pen. Its energetic rhythm and imperfect edges convey spontaneity and authenticity, leaning playful rather than formal.
Designed to simulate quick, confident hand lettering with a brush pen, prioritizing warmth and motion over strict uniformity. The goal appears to be an easygoing script that stays legible while preserving the natural variation and texture of real writing.
The mixed construction—print-like capitals with more connected lowercase—adds an informal, hand-lettered charm. Numerals follow the same brushy logic, staying readable while retaining the same textured, slightly irregular stroke endings.
