A slim, monoline handwritten script with tall, upright-leaning forms and a loose, slightly bouncy baseline rhythm. Strokes keep a consistent thickness with rounded turns and occasional tapered terminals that feel pen-drawn rather than engineered. Uppercase letters are narrow and open, while lowercase forms are compact with small counters and simple joins; extenders are long and expressive, especially in letters like g, j, y, and f. Numerals follow the same narrow, handwritten construction for a cohesive texture in mixed copy.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired: quotes, greeting cards, invitations, lifestyle packaging, and boutique branding. It also works nicely for headers, captions, and UI labels that want a friendly tone while staying relatively clean and readable at modest sizes.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, like quick, neat note-taking or personal labeling. Its narrow, airy rhythm gives it an energetic feel without becoming loud, balancing charm with legibility. The long ascenders and descenders add a touch of expressiveness that reads as warm and personable.
Designed to capture a neat, everyday handwriting look with a narrow footprint and steady monoline stroke, prioritizing an easy, personal feel over formal calligraphy. The consistent rhythm and restrained ornamentation suggest an intention for practical, modern use in contemporary design contexts.
Spacing is relatively tight, producing a continuous handwritten flow in text settings, while individual letters remain clearly separated enough for short passages. The capital set reads as simple, understated companions to the lowercase, and the punctuation-free sample lines suggest it’s most comfortable in casual editorial and display-like phrasing where natural pen irregularities are welcome.
