A slender, handwritten script with tall ascenders and descenders and a noticeably petite x-height that gives the lowercase an airy, vertical rhythm. Strokes stay mostly even with gentle thick–thin modulation, and terminals are soft and rounded, often finishing in small hooks or tapered flicks. Letterforms lean toward narrow, upright proportions with loose, natural spacing and occasional breaks in connectivity, reinforcing a drawn-by-hand texture while remaining legible in words.
Works well for short to medium-length copy where a personal, friendly voice is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, lifestyle branding, and light packaging or labeling. The narrow proportions and tall extenders make it especially effective for headers, names, and accent text when you want a handwritten feel without heavy flourish.
The overall tone is lighthearted and approachable, like neat personal handwriting used for notes, labels, and informal messages. Its looping forms and springy verticality add a touch of charm and whimsy without feeling overly formal or ceremonial.
Likely designed to mimic tidy everyday cursive with a consistent rhythm and a recognizable looped structure, balancing charm with readability. The restrained contrast and upright stance suggest an emphasis on versatility for casual display and headline settings rather than formal calligraphy.
Capitals are simple and tall, pairing smoothly with the compact lowercase; many letters show distinctive looped ascenders (notably in b, d, f, h, l) that become a signature motif in longer text. Numerals follow the same narrow, handwritten logic, with open counters and straightforward shapes that read clearly alongside letters.
