A slender, monoline handwritten script with an upright-to-slightly slanted rhythm and tall proportions. Strokes are clean and even, with gentle curves and occasional long ascenders and descenders that add vertical sparkle. Letterforms favor simple, open counters and looping joins, with a mix of connected cursive behavior and small pen-lift breaks that keep words readable. Capitals are prominent and gestural, often built from single sweeping strokes, while lowercase maintains a consistent baseline with a lightly bouncy cadence.
Works well for short to medium display text such as quotes, cards, invitations, and lifestyle branding where a personal signature-like feel is desired. It can also suit packaging accents or social graphics, especially when paired with a more neutral sans for supporting copy.
The overall tone feels light, personable, and contemporary—like neat journaling or a quick handwritten note dressed up for display. The tall, looping forms add a touch of elegance without becoming formal, keeping the voice approachable and slightly whimsical.
Designed to capture a refined everyday handwriting look—thin, tall, and fluid—optimized for expressive headlines and personable messaging rather than dense reading. The balance of loops, open shapes, and restrained stroke weight aims to feel both modern and handcrafted.
Spacing appears naturally handwritten, with uneven join decisions that create an organic texture in longer phrases. Numerals are simple and handwritten in character, matching the narrow, tall proportions of the letters and sitting comfortably alongside text.
