A very thin, monoline handwritten print with a consistent rightward slant and softly rounded joins. Letterforms are narrow and lightly built, with open counters and generous internal space that keeps shapes legible despite the fine stroke. Curves are smooth and slightly irregular in a natural way, while straights stay clean and unembellished; terminals are mostly simple, with occasional subtle hooks on descenders and entry strokes. Proportions feel compact and vertical, with tall ascenders/descenders and modest crossbars that reinforce a light, sketch-pen rhythm.
This font suits short to medium-length display copy where a soft, personal voice is desirable—invites, greeting cards, quote graphics, light packaging labels, and casual lifestyle branding. It also works well for headings and pull quotes when paired with a sturdier text face for body copy.
The overall tone is gentle and conversational, like neat personal notes written with a fine liner. Its thin strokes and steady slant create an understated, breezy feel that reads as approachable rather than formal. The subtle hand-made variance adds warmth without becoming messy or expressive.
The design appears intended to capture a tidy, everyday handwritten print—clean enough for clear reading, but with just enough natural variation to feel human. Its restrained construction prioritizes a light, modern note-taking aesthetic over bold personality or heavy decoration.
The numerals match the same fine, handwritten logic, with rounded bowls and minimal ornamentation. In text, spacing and stroke economy create a light texture, making the face best when given ample size and breathing room.
