A hairline, hand-drawn script with tall ascenders and generous vertical emphasis. Strokes are predominantly monoline with occasional pressure-like thickening, giving a lightly calligraphic contrast while retaining a sketchy, pen-on-paper feel. Letterforms are loosely connected in text, with open counters, long entry/exit strokes, and frequent looping in capitals. Spacing is uneven by design, and the rhythm alternates between narrow stems and wider, sweeping curves, creating an animated, handwritten texture.
Best suited for short-form display work such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique packaging, social graphics, and pull quotes where its delicate stroke and looping capitals can be appreciated. It can work for brief subheads or signatures, but extended paragraphs may lose clarity because of the light strokes and lively, variable spacing.
The overall tone is light, personal, and gently playful—more like an elegant quick note than formal calligraphy. Its looping capitals and airy construction suggest romance and whimsy, while the thin strokes keep it understated and refined.
Designed to emulate a natural, flowing handwriting voice with a refined, airy presence. The goal appears to be expressive readability—capturing the spontaneity of a pen stroke while maintaining a consistent slant and a cohesive, elegant silhouette across the alphabet.
Capitals are noticeably more expressive than the lowercase, often featuring extended swashes and tall, slender constructions that stand out in display settings. Numerals follow the same hairline, handwritten logic and appear best when not set too small due to their fine stroke weight.
