A tall, wiry handwritten script with monoline strokes and a slightly dry, pen-like texture. Letterforms are strongly right-leaning and built from elongated verticals with compact counters, giving the alphabet a slender, high-rise silhouette. Strokes taper subtly at terminals, with occasional retrace marks and small hooks that reinforce a natural hand-drawn rhythm. Uppercase forms are simplified and open, while lowercase stays compact with minimal joins, producing a semi-connected cursive feel that remains legible in short runs.
Best suited to display settings where its tall, handwritten character can read clearly—such as headlines, branding marks, packaging callouts, poster titles, and social media graphics. It can also work for short quotes or captions where a personal, handwritten tone is desired, especially with generous line spacing.
The overall tone feels informal and personal—quick, note-like, and lightly dramatic. Its narrow, soaring shapes add a fashion-forward edge, balancing friendliness with a slightly edgy, contemporary energy.
This design appears intended to capture a quick, stylish handwriting look—emphasizing height, motion, and personality over rigid regularity. The restrained stroke weight and simplified forms aim for a clean, contemporary script that feels human and spontaneous while staying readable in display sizes.
Spacing appears naturally uneven in a deliberate way, with long ascenders/descenders and occasional extended cross-strokes that create lively horizontal motion. Numerals follow the same slender, handwritten construction and sit comfortably alongside the letters for mixed text settings.
