A delicate, handwritten script with a tall, narrow stance and a consistently light stroke. Letterforms are built from smooth, continuous curves with occasional looped entries and exits, giving the set a flowing rhythm even when characters are not fully connected. Ascenders are notably long and slender, terminals are soft and tapered, and the overall texture stays open and breathable with modest, natural-looking irregularities typical of pen writing.
Best suited for short to medium display text where its fine strokes and tall proportions can remain clear, such as invitations, greeting cards, headings, pull quotes, and lifestyle branding. It also works well for light, boutique-style packaging and social graphics that benefit from a handwritten signature feel.
The font reads as personal and relaxed, with a breezy charm that feels conversational rather than formal. Its looping gestures and slender silhouette add a touch of elegance while keeping the tone approachable and slightly playful.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident pen lettering with refined loops and an airy line. The emphasis appears to be on creating graceful word-shapes and an intimate, handcrafted tone for branding and editorial accents.
Capitals tend to be more expressive, using larger loops and swashes that create strong word-shapes in display settings. Numerals match the handwritten character, staying simple and lightly drawn to blend with text rather than dominate it.
