A lively handwritten script with a tall, slender silhouette and a gently right-leaning forward motion. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with tapered entry and exit terminals, creating a brush-pen feel while keeping forms clean and uncluttered. The rhythm is bouncy and slightly irregular in a natural way, with generous ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase bodies. Letterforms stay mostly unconnected in the samples, relying on consistent slant and spacing to maintain flow, and the numerals follow the same light, calligraphic construction.
Best suited to short-form display typography such as logos, boutique branding, wedding stationery, invitations, product packaging, and social media graphics. It performs well for pull quotes and titling where a handwritten, upscale tone is desired, rather than for dense paragraphs or small UI text.
The overall tone is graceful and personable, balancing elegance with an informal, handwritten spontaneity. It reads as romantic and inviting, with a soft, airy presence suited to expressive, human-centric messaging.
Designed to emulate quick, confident brush handwriting with a refined finish—prioritizing expressive rhythm, tall proportions, and stylish capitals to create standout display text with a personal touch.
Uppercase characters are notably taller and more decorative, providing strong word-start emphasis in headlines, while lowercase maintains simpler looped structures for readability. The contrast and fine terminals suggest the font benefits from adequate size and breathing room, especially on busy backgrounds or at very small settings.
