A delicate, monoline script with a pronounced rightward slant and a loose, continuous rhythm. Letterforms are built from long, sweeping curves and slender verticals, with frequent entry/exit strokes that keep words feeling lightly connected even when characters don’t fully join. Proportions favor tall ascenders and deep descenders over body height, creating an open texture and lots of white space. Capitals are larger and more gestural, often formed with single looping strokes, while lowercase stays narrow and streamlined for a quick handwritten cadence.
Works best for short to medium phrases where a handwritten feel is desirable—logos, boutique branding, packaging callouts, invitations, greeting cards, and pull quotes. It can also suit overlays in social graphics or lifestyle photography when set with generous spacing and ample size.
The overall tone feels personal and graceful, like quick, neat handwriting used for notes or signatures. Its light touch and looping movement lean romantic and boutique rather than formal or corporate, giving text a soft, intimate presence.
Designed to emulate a refined everyday cursive: fast, fluid pen strokes with elegant capitals and a light, airy color. The emphasis appears to be on expressive flow and a signature-like personality rather than dense text setting.
In running text, the stroke continuity and narrow proportions produce a lively, slightly bouncy baseline with clear directional flow. The numerals match the same thin, handwritten construction and keep the set cohesive in mixed copy.
