A slim, slanted handwritten script with tall proportions and a light, monoline feel. Strokes are smooth and slightly variable, with frequent loops and soft entry/exit terminals that keep the line moving. Letterforms are narrow with generous ascenders and descenders, creating an open rhythm and a high, breezy texture in words. Capitals are more expressive and gestural, while lowercase stays simple and legible with occasional joins and minimal pen-lift breaks.
Best suited to short display text where its tall, flowing forms can be appreciated—logos, brand marks, invitations, product packaging, social graphics, and pull quotes. It works well when paired with a simple sans or understated serif for supporting text.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, like quick, confident handwriting refined for display. Its tall, airy construction reads as modern and lightly elegant rather than formal, giving it a warm, conversational presence.
The design appears intended to capture an effortless handwritten signature look while staying clean and consistent across the alphabet. Its narrow, tall construction suggests an emphasis on graceful word shapes and a contemporary, lightweight presence in display settings.
The numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with slender forms and curved strokes that match the script’s cadence. Some capitals feature prominent loops and sweeping strokes that can become focal points in short phrases, especially at larger sizes.
