A smooth, handwritten script with a consistent, low-contrast stroke and a steady rightward slant. Letterforms are compact and relatively narrow, with rounded terminals and soft curves that keep the texture even across words. Joins are fluid in the lowercase, while capitals read as simplified, signature-like forms with occasional looped entries and gentle swashes. Ascenders are tall and prominent, counters stay open, and the numerals follow the same flowing, pen-drawn logic for a cohesive set.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where a personal, handwritten feel is desired—such as lifestyle branding, packaging accents, invitations, greeting cards, pull quotes, and social graphics. It can also work as a secondary voice paired with a clean sans for headings or callouts where warmth and informality are important.
The overall tone feels approachable and personal, like neat everyday handwriting rather than formal calligraphy. Its relaxed rhythm and rounded motion give it a light, friendly energy suitable for warm, conversational messaging.
Designed to capture the look of tidy, flowing handwriting with reliable legibility and an even, pen-like stroke. The restrained ornamentation and compact proportions suggest an intention to remain versatile for everyday display copy rather than highly decorative script work.
Spacing and rhythm aim for continuous word shapes, with some characters introducing distinctive loops (notably in letters like g, j, y, and z) that add personality without becoming ornate. The stroke remains visually even from thin connections to heavier turns, supporting a consistent texture in longer lines of text.
