A slim, handwritten script with tall, elongated proportions and a light, airy stroke. Letterforms are mostly upright with gentle rightward movement, alternating between simple stem-and-loop constructions and occasional flourished joins. Strokes show a noticeable pen-like contrast between thicker downstrokes and finer hairlines, with soft terminals and rounded entry/exit strokes. The lowercase has a relatively small x-height compared to long ascenders and descenders, and spacing is open enough to keep the texture from becoming dense despite the narrow forms.
This font is well suited to short, expressive settings such as headlines, pull quotes, invitations, greeting cards, and packaging accents where a human touch is desirable. It also works nicely for social posts, product tags, and light branding applications that benefit from an informal, handwritten voice.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, like neat casual handwriting used for notes, labels, and cheerful signage. Its looping forms and light rhythm give it an approachable, slightly whimsical feel that reads as friendly rather than formal.
The design appears intended to capture a tidy, modern handwritten script—narrow, tall, and lightly contrasted—balancing legibility with a touch of flourish. It aims to feel spontaneous and personal while remaining consistent enough for repeated use in display text.
Capitals are especially tall and slender, with a few featuring decorative loops that create a signature-like character in headings. The numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying narrow and clean, which helps them blend naturally with the letters in mixed text.
