A lively handwritten script with mostly monoline strokes and gently rounded terminals. Letterforms are slender and vertically oriented, with a bouncy baseline and uneven, natural-looking rhythm. Curves are loopy and open, while verticals stay narrow and tall, creating a light, airy texture in text. Connections appear in the overall cursive flow, but individual shapes keep a slightly separated, sketch-like articulation that preserves a hand-drawn character.
Works well for short-to-medium display text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired, such as invitations, greeting cards, craft branding, packaging labels, posters, and social media graphics. It can also suit headings or pull quotes when paired with a more neutral text face for longer reading.
The font feels personable and upbeat, like neat marker or pen lettering used for notes, labels, and informal signage. Its narrow, tall proportions and springy movement give it a youthful, approachable tone without becoming overly ornate.
Designed to capture the immediacy of informal cursive handwriting in a clean, repeatable font, balancing legibility with a spontaneous, personal touch. The narrow, upright structure suggests an intent to fit more characters in tight spaces while keeping a light, playful presence.
Capitals are simple and narrow with occasional playful quirks, while lowercase shows prominent ascenders and descenders that add motion. Numerals follow the same slender, handwritten logic, keeping forms legible while retaining the casual, drawn-by-hand irregularities.
