A monoline handwritten script with slender, slightly bouncy strokes and a softly irregular rhythm. Letterforms are tall and narrow with long ascenders and descenders, a compact lowercase body, and generous internal whitespace that keeps the texture open. Curves are smooth and loopy, terminals tend to taper gently, and joins appear intermittent—some connections flow naturally while others lift like quick pen breaks. Capitals are simple and elongated, echoing the same narrow proportions and maintaining an even, drawn-by-hand consistency across the set.
Well-suited for greeting cards, invitations, personal stationery, social graphics, and quote layouts where an informal handwritten feel is desired. It performs best in short-to-medium lengths—titles, captions, product labels, and packaging callouts—where the tall, loopy forms can breathe with comfortable line spacing.
The overall tone is casual and personable, like neat notes written with a fine pen. Its light, airy presence reads friendly and informal, with a playful, slightly whimsical bounce that stays readable even in longer phrases.
Designed to emulate quick, tidy cursive writing with a fine-pen stroke, prioritizing an approachable, personal voice over strict uniformity. The narrow, tall construction and gentle loops aim to provide a distinctive handwritten signature while staying legible in common display sizes.
Numbers and capitals follow the same slender, hand-drawn construction, creating a cohesive set for mixed-case text. The narrow proportions and long verticals give lines a tall silhouette, so spacing and line height matter to preserve clarity where loops and descenders stack.
