A tall, handwritten script with a consistent, pen-like stroke and gently fluctuating thickness. Letterforms are narrow and upright-leaning with long ascenders and descenders, compact counters, and a notably small lowercase body relative to the caps. Curves are open and slightly irregular in a natural way, with occasional looped construction (notably in forms like g, y, and some capitals) and simple, tapered terminals that feel like quick pen lift-offs. Capitals are larger and more expressive, often using long entry strokes and sweeping curves, while numerals follow the same slender, handwritten logic with simple, readable shapes.
Works best for short to medium-length text where a personal, handwritten feel is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, quotes, headings, and boutique packaging. It can also suit social graphics and branding accents when used with generous line spacing to accommodate the tall extenders.
The overall tone feels informal and conversational, like neat handwriting used for notes or a quick title. The slender strokes and tall proportions give it a light, airy presence, while the looped gestures add a touch of playfulness and charm.
Likely designed to emulate quick, stylish handwriting with a narrow footprint and expressive capitals. The goal appears to balance legibility with an organic, hand-drawn rhythm suitable for friendly display typography.
Spacing appears naturally uneven in a handwritten way, and the tallest ascenders/descenders can create an animated vertical rhythm. Some characters use distinctive looped or flourish-like strokes that stand out in display settings, especially in all-caps or title case.
