A light, handwritten cursive with a right-leaning rhythm and a loose, bouncy baseline. Strokes are predominantly monoline with subtle tapering at entry and exit points, giving letters a brushed, drawn-by-hand feel without heavy texture. The forms are narrow and tall, with compact lowercase bodies and prominent ascenders/descenders; counters stay open and the overall spacing is generous for a script, aiding clarity in mixed-case settings. Capitals are simplified and calligraphic, often built from single flowing strokes with occasional swash-like terminals.
Well-suited to short to medium text where a human, approachable voice is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, packaging callouts, and social media overlays. It works especially well for headings, names, and accent phrases, and can pair with a neutral sans for supporting copy.
The font reads as relaxed and personable, like neat note-taking or a casual signature. Its narrow, airy shapes and gentle loops create a friendly, slightly whimsical tone that feels informal rather than ceremonial.
Designed to capture a clean, everyday cursive handwriting look with consistent proportions and an easy flow. The narrow, tall construction and restrained contrast aim to keep the script legible while still feeling personal and expressive.
Connectivity is suggestive rather than fully continuous: some letters link smoothly while others separate, producing a natural handwritten cadence. Numerals are simple and upright-to-slightly slanted, matching the script’s light stroke and maintaining legibility alongside text.
