A lively handwritten script with a lightly right-leaning rhythm and a mostly monoline stroke that swells subtly at curves and turns. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with compact bowls and frequent looped constructions in both capitals and lowercase. Ascenders are long and prominent while the x-height sits low, giving lines a buoyant, airy texture. Connections appear natural and pen-driven, with smooth entry/exit strokes, occasional lifted joins, and softly rounded terminals that keep the overall texture clean rather than scratchy.
Works best for short to medium text where a personal, handwritten feel is desired—logos, boutique branding, labels, invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It also performs well as a headline or pull-quote face paired with a restrained sans or serif for supporting copy.
The tone is warm and conversational, like quick note-taking with a confident marker pen. Its looping capitals and buoyant baseline movement add a playful charm without becoming overly decorative, making it feel approachable and human.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of cursive handwriting while keeping letterforms orderly enough for repeated use in display settings. The narrow proportions, long ascenders, and looping capitals emphasize personality and motion, aiming for an informal signature-like presence that stays legible at common headline sizes.
Capitals are expressive and often feature extended lead-in strokes, while lowercase maintains a consistent cursive flow with clear counters and open apertures. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple, rounded shapes that blend well with text. Spacing is moderately loose for a script, helping the narrow forms remain readable in longer phrases.
