A monoline, handwritten script with a gentle rightward slant and a loose, bouncy rhythm. Strokes stay smooth and even, with rounded joins, open counters, and frequent looped entry/exit strokes that sometimes connect across letters in text. Ascenders and capitals are tall and prominent, while lowercase bodies remain compact, giving the line a light, airy texture. Spacing is irregular in a natural way, and letter widths vary noticeably, reinforcing the hand-drawn feel.
This font suits short-to-medium text where an intimate, handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, quote graphics, product packaging accents, and social media overlays. It works especially well for headings, names, and short phrases, and can be paired with a clean sans for supporting copy.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a soft, personal character like a neat note or a friendly label. Its thin, looping forms feel lighthearted and approachable rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to emulate tidy, contemporary cursive handwriting with minimal contrast and just enough looping to feel expressive. It prioritizes a natural written flow and an airy, elegant line over strict uniformity or formal calligraphy structure.
Uppercase forms are simple and upright in construction with occasional flourish, and numerals follow the same monoline, handwritten logic for visual consistency. The font reads best at moderate sizes where the fine strokes and compact lowercase details remain clear.
