A slender, monoline handwritten script with a gently forward slant and tall, elongated proportions. Strokes stay even and lightly tensioned, with soft curves, open bowls, and frequent looped forms in both capitals and lowercase. Letterforms are narrow with generous vertical reach, featuring long ascenders and descenders that create a bouncy baseline rhythm. Connections are suggested by flowing terminals and occasional joins, while spacing remains relatively open to preserve clarity at small stroke widths.
Works well for short to medium lines where a handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, quote graphics, social media headers, and small-brand packaging. It’s especially suited to titles, captions, and highlight phrases where its tall loops and light stroke can breathe.
The overall tone is light, personable, and slightly playful, like neat handwritten notes or boutique branding copy. Its looping gestures and tall rhythm feel expressive without becoming overly decorative, giving it an easygoing, conversational presence.
Designed to capture a clean, modern cursive handwriting feel with minimal stroke weight and a tall, elegant rhythm. The emphasis appears to be on airy readability and friendly expressiveness rather than heavy ornamentation.
Capitals lean toward simple, single-stroke constructions with occasional flourish, while lowercase alternates between connected and lightly separated behavior depending on the letter. Numerals follow the same airy line quality, with rounded shapes and a handwritten irregularity that keeps texture lively in longer text lines.
