A lively handwritten script with tall, slender letterforms and a lightly bouncing baseline rhythm. Strokes feel pen-drawn and mostly monoline, with subtle thick–thin shifts from turns and terminals rather than formal modulation. Capitals are decorative and narrow, using long entrance strokes, loops, and occasional swash-like hooks, while the lowercase shows compact bodies with small counters and simplified joins that don’t always fully connect. Ascenders are prominent and tapered, curves are slightly irregular in a natural way, and figures are simple, open, and consistent with the same drawn texture.
Works well for short to medium-length display copy where a personal, handwritten voice is desired, such as invitations, greeting cards, product packaging, café-style signage, and social media graphics. It can also support pull quotes and headings, especially when paired with a simple sans for body text.
The overall tone is warm, informal, and slightly quirky—more like quick, neat handwriting than polished calligraphy. Its tall proportions and loopy capitals add a cheerful, personable character that reads as approachable and handcrafted.
Designed to capture an authentic handwritten look with decorative, looped capitals and a neat but lively rhythm, aiming for charm and readability in display contexts rather than strict, fully connected script behavior.
In text settings the spacing stays airy despite the narrow build, with noticeable variation in stroke endings and join behavior that reinforces the hand-rendered feel. The set includes distinctive, looped capitals and clean, readable numerals that visually match the script style.
