A delicate, handwritten script with tall, slender letterforms and a lightly wandering baseline. Strokes feel close to monoline with subtle pressure changes at curves and terminals, and the overall construction favors long ascenders/descenders and generous inner counters. Capitals are simplified and linear with occasional looped starts, while many lowercase forms use narrow ovals, fine joins, and soft, rounded turns. Spacing is irregular in an intentional, human way, and the figures are equally thin and handwritten, matching the alphabet’s light rhythm.
Best suited to short, expressive text where a light, personal voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, small packaging callouts, and social graphics. It can also work for headlines or pull quotes when set with ample size and breathing room to preserve the fine strokes and narrow details.
The font reads as intimate and casual, like quick notes written with a fine pen. Its narrow, looping shapes and tall proportions give it a whimsical, slightly quirky charm that feels friendly rather than formal.
Designed to emulate a neat but spontaneous handwritten script, prioritizing personality and flow over strict regularity. The tall proportions, soft loops, and fine strokes suggest an intention to feel elegant in a casual, approachable way.
Letterforms show consistent pen-like entry/exit strokes and occasional closed loops (notably in rounded letters), which adds motion even when characters don’t fully connect. The contrast between very tall capitals and petite lowercase contributes to a lively, storybook cadence in longer text.
