A slender, monoline handwritten script with a steady rightward slant and a smooth, continuous stroke rhythm. Letterforms are built from tall, narrow structures with generous ascenders and descenders, giving lines a vertically stretched silhouette. Curves stay open and lightly rounded, with occasional looped entries/exits and subtle taper-like pressure changes that read as natural pen movement rather than geometric construction. Spacing is fairly open for a script, keeping words legible while preserving a flowing, drawn-in-one-pass character.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display copy where an informal signature feel is desired—brand marks, boutique packaging, invitations, and social media graphics. It also works nicely for pull quotes and headings when paired with a quiet sans or serif for body text.
The overall tone is light and personable, like neat everyday handwriting dressed up with a touch of sophistication. It feels approachable and modern, with enough flourish in capitals and long strokes to add charm without becoming overly ornate.
The design appears intended to capture clean, contemporary cursive handwriting: minimal stroke weight, narrow proportions, and smooth joins that create a quick, personal line while remaining polished enough for branded applications.
Capitals tend to be larger and more gestural, often starting with a simple lead-in stroke and finishing with a soft terminal, which creates clear word shapes in display settings. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying simple and upright-leaning with rounded turns for consistency alongside text.
