A fast, handwritten script with a steep right slant and tall, slender letterforms. Strokes feel pen-drawn and mostly monoline with subtle pressure changes, producing occasional thickened downstrokes and tapered terminals. Uppercase forms are simplified and open, while lowercase shows compact bodies with very tall ascenders/descenders, narrow counters, and frequent looped constructions. Connections appear intermittent—many letters can join, but spacing and stroke breaks keep a natural, written rhythm rather than a fully continuous script.
Best suited to short display settings such as logos, product labels, invitations, social posts, and pull quotes where a handwritten feel is desired. It works especially well at medium-to-large sizes where the narrow proportions and looped strokes can remain clear.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick signature writing refined for display. Its narrow, rising rhythm and long loops add a hint of elegance and motion, giving headlines a breezy, energetic voice.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident cursive writing with a clean, modern finish—prioritizing personality and momentum over strict calligraphic formality.
Letter spacing is tight and the internal apertures are small, which makes the texture dense in longer words despite the light stroke. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simple, slightly irregular forms that maintain the font’s swift, gestural character.
