A slim, monoline handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and tall proportions. Strokes are smooth and rounded, with frequent looped entries/exits and soft terminals that mimic a felt-tip or fineliner line. Letterforms keep generous openness in bowls and counters, and the rhythm is lightly bouncy, with subtle size and width changes that preserve a natural hand-drawn flow. Uppercase forms are simplified and upright-leaning with occasional flourish-like hooks, while lowercase forms favor single-storey shapes and compact joins.
Works well for short-to-medium display copy such as greeting cards, invitations, social media graphics, packaging callouts, and quote-style headlines. It’s also suitable for light branding accents where a personal, handwritten feel is desired, especially at moderate sizes with comfortable line spacing.
The overall tone is warm and informal, reading like neat everyday handwriting. Its light, airy texture and looping gestures give it a cheerful, approachable voice suited to friendly messaging rather than formal typography.
Designed to capture a tidy, modern cursive handwriting style with an easy, conversational flow. The aim appears to balance personality and readability through open shapes, gentle loops, and a consistent pen-like stroke.
Spacing appears intentionally relaxed, helping the script stay legible in short phrases while maintaining a continuous, handwritten cadence. Numerals and capitals follow the same monoline logic, keeping the set visually cohesive for mixed-case and alphanumeric use.
