A slender, monoline handwritten script with a tall, upright-leaning rhythm and a lightly irregular baseline. Strokes stay consistently thin with soft joins and occasional open counters, giving letters a sketchy pen-drawn feel rather than a polished calligraphic one. Uppercase forms are simple and narrow with long verticals, while lowercase shows looping ascenders/descenders and compact bowls that keep the texture light and spacious. Spacing appears naturally uneven in a hand-written way, and the overall color on the page remains delicate even in longer lines of text.
Best suited for short to medium text where a personal touch is desired—invites, greeting cards, quote graphics, social media overlays, and light packaging accents. It can also work for headings or signatures in editorial layouts where an airy handwritten texture is needed without heavy emphasis.
The font reads as personal and relaxed, like quick notes written with a fine pen. Its narrow, tall silhouettes and springy loops add a gentle whimsy that feels friendly and contemporary rather than formal or traditional.
Designed to capture the ease of informal handwriting in a refined, consistent set of forms. The intent appears to prioritize a light, elegant scribble aesthetic—legible enough for display lines while retaining the spontaneity of pen-on-paper motion.
In running text, the long ascenders and descenders create an animated vertical cadence, while the thin strokes keep the tone understated. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple, lightly drawn forms that blend smoothly with the alphabet.
