A delicate, slanted script with a narrow, tall overall footprint and a light, pen-drawn texture. Strokes feel largely monoline with subtle swelling through curves, and terminals often finish in tapered flicks. Letterforms are open and loop-forward, with generous ascenders and descenders that create a lively vertical rhythm. Spacing varies naturally, and many shapes suggest quick, continuous handwriting even when letters are not strictly connected.
Well-suited to invitations, greeting cards, short quotes, and boutique branding where a personal, handwritten voice is desired. It can also work on packaging and social graphics at larger sizes, where the tall, light strokes and expressive capitals have room to breathe.
The tone is relaxed and personable, like a neat handwritten note with a slightly dressy flair. Its airy construction and looping forms read as friendly and expressive while still feeling refined enough for tasteful display use.
Designed to capture an informal cursive feel with a clean, contemporary lightness—prioritizing speed-of-hand energy, elegant slant, and expressive loops for display-centric text.
Capitals are prominent and flourishy, helping create a strong entry rhythm at the start of words. Lowercase proportions stay compact in the body with frequent long stems, giving lines a bouncy cadence. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simple, slender forms and occasional cursive-like strokes.
