A delicate cursive script with slender strokes and a pronounced slant, mixing smooth loops with occasional long, sweeping entry and exit strokes. Letterforms are tall and lightly built, with generous ascenders and descenders that create a vertical, willowy rhythm. Stroke contrast is noticeable within curves and terminals, and many joins are subtle rather than fully continuous, giving a sketchlike, pen-drawn cadence. Capitals are especially expressive, featuring large looped structures and extended terminals, while numerals follow the same airy, handwritten construction.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where a handcrafted signature feel is desired, such as logos, brand marks, boutique packaging, invitations, and social media graphics. It can also work for headings and pull quotes where its airy rhythm and expressive capitals can be given room to shine.
The overall tone is light, graceful, and personable—more like quick, elegant handwriting than formal calligraphy. Its looping capitals and relaxed connections lend a romantic, slightly whimsical character that feels friendly and bespoke.
Designed to evoke elegant everyday handwriting with a fashion-forward, signature-like presence. The intent appears to balance readability with flourish, using tall proportions and looping forms to create a distinctive, graceful word image.
Spacing appears comfortable for a script style, with clear word shapes and open interior spaces that help the forms breathe. The most distinctive visual signature comes from the elongated loops and the high, narrow proportions, which make the line feel refined yet informal.
