A slender, handwritten cursive with a smooth, slightly brushy stroke and subtle contrast from pen pressure. Letterforms are tall and narrow with long ascenders and descenders, and the lowercase has a notably small x-height that emphasizes vertical rhythm. Curves are soft and open, with frequent loops in letters like g, j, y, and Q, and capitals that feel gestural and lightly calligraphic rather than constructed. Spacing and widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, keeping the texture lively and informal while remaining broadly legible in words and short phrases.
Well suited to short display text where a handwritten voice is desired: invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, social media headers, and packaging accents. It can also work for branding elements such as logos or product names when a friendly, informal signature-like feel is appropriate. For longer passages, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes and with generous line spacing.
The overall tone is personable and relaxed, like neat quick handwriting used for notes, labels, or casual invitations. Its airy strokes and tall proportions add a light, elegant lift without becoming formal or rigid. The irregularities in width and the flowing joins give it an approachable, human feel.
The design appears intended to capture a tidy, flowing handwriting style with a light brush-pen sensibility—prioritizing natural movement, tall proportions, and expressive capitals. It aims to deliver an authentic, personal tone while keeping forms clear enough for everyday display use.
Capitals are prominent and expressive, often taller and more sweeping than the lowercase, which can create a strong initial-letter emphasis in titles. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic—simple, open forms with smooth curves—making them fit naturally alongside text. Because the lowercase is compact, the font’s character is most apparent when set with a bit of breathing room (slightly larger sizes or looser leading).
