A monoline, pen-like script with a gentle forward slant and a tall, narrow silhouette. Strokes stay mostly even in thickness with rounded terminals and occasional looped entries/exits, giving the letterforms a continuous handwritten rhythm. Lowercase has compact bowls and a modest x-height, while ascenders and descenders run long and add vertical animation; capitals are simplified and open, closer to quick hand lettering than formal calligraphy. Spacing is slightly irregular in an intentional way, with variable character widths that keep words feeling naturally written rather than mechanically set.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where a personal, human touch is the goal: greeting cards, invitations, quotes, social graphics, packaging accents, and boutique branding. It also works nicely for headers, pull quotes, and signature-style name marks where its narrow, vertical rhythm can add elegance without feeling formal.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, with a breezy, informal confidence. Its looping joins and lively vertical movement read as friendly and expressive—more like a quick note or signature than a polished script.
Designed to emulate natural cursive handwriting with clean, even strokes and a light, fast-written feel. The intent appears to balance legibility with expressive movement, using tall proportions and looping connections to create an approachable, contemporary handwritten voice.
Digit forms follow the same handwritten logic, with simple, open shapes and rounded turns that match the alphabet. The style remains consistent across the set, maintaining a cohesive, sketch-like flow without heavy ornamentation.
