A slim, monoline handwritten script with a rightward slant and a tall, vertical rhythm. Strokes stay smooth and low-contrast, with rounded terminals and frequent looped entries and exits that suggest continuous pen movement. Letterforms are generally narrow and upright in structure despite the slant, with small bowls and open counters; ascenders and capitals rise prominently above the x-height, creating a light, elegant texture in text. Spacing feels moderately loose for a script, helping individual letters remain distinguishable even when connections occur.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text in display contexts such as invitations, greeting cards, personal stationery, boutique branding, and packaging accents. It also works nicely for pull quotes and social graphics where a light, handwritten voice is desired and ample size can preserve the fine strokes.
The overall tone is gentle and personable, like neat, careful handwriting. Its thin line and generous loops add a refined, slightly whimsical character that reads as warm rather than formal.
Designed to capture a clean, modern handwritten script look—light on ornament, but still flowing—balancing legibility with a graceful, personal touch.
Capitals are simplified and tall, often built from single sweeping strokes with minimal flourishes, which keeps headings tidy. Numerals follow the same delicate, handwritten logic, with curved forms and consistent stroke weight that blend naturally with the alphabet.
