A relaxed handwritten script with a smooth, monoline stroke and a subtle rightward lean. Letterforms are tall and slender, with generous ascenders/descenders and a compact lowercase body that keeps the rhythm light and airy. Curves are rounded and open, with occasional looped joins and tapered-feeling terminals created by stroke momentum rather than true pen-angle contrast. Spacing is naturally irregular in a controlled way, reinforcing a hand-drawn cadence while keeping words readable in running text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium copy where a human, conversational voice is needed—greeting cards, invitations, quotes, social media graphics, and lifestyle packaging. It can also work for personal branding accents such as headers, pull quotes, or product names, especially when paired with a clean sans for body text.
The overall tone is approachable and personable, like quick notes written with a felt-tip pen. Its bouncy rhythm and soft curves give it an upbeat, informal character that feels friendly rather than formal or calligraphic.
Designed to capture the immediacy of everyday handwriting while remaining coherent and consistent across the full alphabet and numerals. The tall, narrow proportions and smooth stroke aim to maximize readability in a casual script tone without looking overly ornate.
Uppercase forms are simplified and slightly varied in structure, reading as written capitals rather than constructed display caps. Numerals follow the same casual, handwritten logic, with simple shapes and consistent stroke weight that blends seamlessly with the alphabet.
