A monoline handwritten script with a forward slant and tall, narrow letterforms. Strokes keep an even, pen-like thickness, with rounded terminals and occasional tapered entries that suggest quick, continuous writing. Proportions emphasize long ascenders and descenders, while the lowercase stays compact, creating a high ascender-to-x-height ratio and an overall lightweight texture. Shapes are fluid and slightly variable in rhythm, with generous curves and open counters in letters like a, e, and o; numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple, looping forms.
Well-suited for short to medium text where a personal touch is desired, such as signatures, invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, and social posts. It can also work for light branding accents—names, headings, and packaging callouts—where an elegant handwritten impression is preferred over strict formality.
The tone is informal and personable, balancing casual spontaneity with a refined, airy grace. It reads like neat, modern handwriting—friendly and expressive without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident cursive writing with a clean, contemporary finish. The narrow proportions and compact lowercase appear intended to keep lines feeling light and flowing while preserving readability in phrases and headlines.
Uppercase forms are simple and calligraphic, leaning on single-stroke constructions and understated loops (notably in B, P, R, and Q), which helps them mix naturally with lowercase. Word shapes in the sample text show smooth joining behavior and a steady baseline flow, making the style feel cohesive across longer phrases.
