A tall, slim handwritten script with a monoline feel and a steady rightward slant. Strokes are smooth and slightly elastic, with frequent looped entrances and exits that create a flowing rhythm without requiring full connectivity between letters. Capitals are prominent and gestural, mixing long curves with occasional crossbars and extended terminals, while lowercase forms stay compact with small counters and restrained joins. Spacing is moderately open for a script, helping the narrow letters remain readable, and numerals follow the same streamlined, handwritten construction.
Well-suited to short to medium text where a human, informal voice is desired—quotes, cards, invites, social posts, packaging callouts, and boutique brand accents. It also works as a secondary script paired with a clean sans for headings, signatures, and display lines.
The overall tone is casual and personable, like neat marker or pen lettering for notes, invitations, and lifestyle branding. Its tall, airy rhythm feels upbeat and approachable, with enough flourish in the capitals to add charm without becoming overly formal.
Likely intended as a modern handwritten cursive that feels quick and natural, with tall proportions and selective flourishes to keep it expressive while staying legible in display sizes. The emphasis on lively capitals and smooth pen-like motion suggests use in personal, contemporary branding and editorial-style pull quotes.
The design balances expressiveness with clarity: loops and long terminals add motion, while the relatively consistent stroke width and open spacing keep lines from feeling tangled. The most decorative emphasis appears in uppercase forms and in a few distinctive letter shapes that give the alphabet a handcrafted signature.
