A thin, monoline cursive with a consistent rightward slant and a lightly calligraphic rhythm. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with generous ascenders and descenders that give words a vertical, wiry silhouette. Strokes stay even in weight with rounded terminals and frequent entry/exit swashes; many capitals include looped construction and extended lead-in strokes. Spacing is compact and the overall texture is light, producing a clean, open page color despite the script movement.
Works well for short-to-medium phrases where a handwritten feel is desired—logos, boutique packaging, invitations, greeting cards, and pull quotes. The delicate stroke and narrow proportions make it especially effective at larger sizes or when paired with a sturdier sans or serif for supporting text.
The tone is personable and informal, like quick, neat handwriting. Its light touch and looping capitals lend a graceful, slightly playful character without feeling ornate or formal.
Designed to emulate a refined everyday cursive: fast-flowing connections, looped capitals, and a light pen-like stroke that prioritizes elegance and approachability in display settings.
Capitals are notably more decorative than the lowercase, providing a strong initial-letter presence in names and headlines. Numerals follow the same thin, handwritten logic, reading as simple, slightly slanted figures that match the script’s rhythm.
