A fine, monoline handwritten script with a rightward slant and a lightly bouncing baseline. Strokes are hairline-thin and fluid, alternating between simple, open curves and occasional looped joins, giving words a lightly connected rhythm. Proportions are tall and slender with long ascenders and descenders, narrow counters, and compact lowercase bodies; capitals are similarly slim and gestural, often built from single continuous strokes. Numerals follow the same airy, handwritten construction, with rounded forms and minimal weight emphasis.
Well-suited to short phrases where a personal, handwritten feel is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique packaging, quotes, and social graphics. It reads best at larger sizes where the very fine strokes and tight proportions have room to breathe.
The tone feels intimate and informal, like quick notes written with a fine pen. Its light touch and looping gestures add a gentle whimsy while staying tidy enough to read at display sizes.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of neat cursive handwriting with an extra-light pen stroke, balancing legibility with a breezy, personal character for expressive display use.
Connectivity varies from letter to letter, so the texture alternates between cursive joins and small pen lifts, which contributes to a natural, hand-drawn cadence. The overall spacing is tight and vertical, producing a light, elegant color on the page.
