A casual handwritten script with a tall, slender build and a forward-leaning slant. Strokes read as pen-like and mostly monoline with subtle thick–thin changes, and terminals tend to be softly rounded. Letterforms use simple looped constructions and occasional entry/exit strokes that suggest connection, while spacing and widths vary slightly to preserve an organic rhythm. Capitals are notably taller and more gestural, standing above the lowercase with a light, airy presence.
Works well for short to medium text where a personal, handwritten feel is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, and lifestyle packaging. It’s best suited to display sizes or spacious settings where the slender strokes and tight proportions can remain legible.
The overall tone feels approachable and informal, like quick neat handwriting used for notes or a greeting card. Its narrow, upright energy and looping forms give it a cheerful, conversational voice without becoming overly ornate.
Designed to emulate neat, everyday cursive writing with a light touch, prioritizing a natural flow and friendly tone over rigid typographic regularity. The tall proportions and modest contrast aim to keep the texture airy while still reading clearly in headline-style use.
The character set leans on simplified cursive shapes rather than fully continuous joins, so words read as handwritten while maintaining clear letter separation. Numerals share the same light, slightly bouncy construction, keeping the texture consistent across mixed text.
