A compact, handwritten script with tall, slender proportions and a lightly bouncy baseline. Strokes read as pen-drawn and mostly monoline, with subtle contrast from pressure-like turns and tapered terminals. Letterforms alternate between partial connections and clean breaks, creating a quick, informal rhythm rather than a fully continuous join. Counters are small and rounded, ascenders are prominent, and capitals are simplified and narrow with occasional looped or elongated strokes that add personality.
Works best for short to medium text where personality matters: packaging labels, social media graphics, invitations, greeting cards, and casual lifestyle branding. It can also serve as an accent face paired with a neutral sans for headings, pull quotes, or callouts.
The overall tone is approachable and upbeat, like quick note-taking or a casual greeting card. Its narrow, tall shapes and brisk stroke rhythm give it an energetic, youthful feel, while the soft curves keep it warm rather than edgy.
Designed to evoke natural handwriting with a tidy, narrow footprint—prioritizing charm and speed-of-writing character over formal calligraphy. The intent appears to be a versatile, informal script that stays legible while still feeling personal and handmade.
Capitals stand taller and more linear, helping words keep a clean silhouette even in mixed case. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple shapes and slight irregularities that reinforce the drawn-by-hand character.
