A tall, right-leaning script with smooth, brush-like strokes and rounded terminals. Strokes stay relatively even in thickness with subtle thick–thin modulation, and the letterforms are narrow and vertical in proportion. The lowercase shows long, elegant ascenders and descenders with occasional loops, while capitals are simplified and airy, often built from a single flowing stroke. Spacing and widths vary slightly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a natural handwritten rhythm and an energetic baseline movement.
Well-suited for short-to-medium display settings where a friendly handwritten feel is desired, such as logos, product labels, invitations, greeting cards, and social posts. It can also work for pull quotes and headings when set with ample line spacing to accommodate the tall ascenders and descenders.
The overall tone is personable and upbeat, with a relaxed handwritten charm. Its narrow, springy forms and looping details create a light, expressive voice that feels approachable rather than formal.
The design appears intended to capture a clean, modern handwritten signature look—narrow, flowing, and easy to place in compact horizontal spaces—while keeping enough regularity for legible display text.
Some joins are implied rather than strictly connected, so the texture reads as quick handwriting with intermittent link strokes. Numerals follow the same slender, cursive logic and maintain a consistent slant, helping mixed text feel cohesive.
