A slim, monoline handwritten script with tall ascenders and compact lowercase bodies. Strokes maintain an even weight with rounded terminals and occasional soft hooks, creating a lightly looped, flowing rhythm that reads like quick marker or pen lettering. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, with open counters and simplified shapes; capitals are taller and more gesture-driven than structural, helping the font feel informal and spontaneous.
Well-suited to short display copy where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—such as social posts, invitations, greeting cards, casual packaging, and poster headlines. It can also work for pull quotes and brief captions when you want a warm, informal tone and a crafted look.
The overall tone is lighthearted and approachable, with a doodled, personal-note quality. Its narrow, lively forms and gentle loops give it an energetic, conversational feel that fits friendly messaging more than formal communication.
Designed to emulate quick, everyday handwriting with an easy, flowing script feel while keeping forms clean and legible. The narrow proportions and tall vertical emphasis suggest an intent to pack words efficiently while still conveying a playful, handmade personality.
The texture is intentionally imperfect: spacing and join behavior vary slightly from letter to letter, and some glyphs lean toward print-like forms while others connect more fluidly, reinforcing the hand-drawn character. Numerals are simple and upright, matching the same monoline stroke and casual finish.
