A slim, handwritten script with tall proportions, quick pen-like strokes, and frequent looped construction in both capitals and lowercase. Strokes alternate between hairline-thin passages and darker downstrokes, producing a lively, calligraphic rhythm without looking rigidly formal. Letterforms are loosely connected in places but often remain individually articulated, with generous internal space and rounded turns that keep words readable at display sizes. Capitals are especially tall and expressive, with simplified, single-stroke structures and occasional flourish-like entry/exit strokes.
Best suited for short, expressive text such as brand marks, boutique packaging, quotes, and social media graphics where the tall, airy rhythm can shine. It also works well for invitations or cards when used at comfortable sizes with a bit of tracking to preserve the open, handwritten texture.
The font reads like a personal, stylish note—light on its feet, friendly, and slightly whimsical. Its tall, looping gestures add a touch of elegance while the irregular, hand-drawn rhythm keeps it approachable and informal.
Designed to capture the look of quick, modern cursive handwriting with a refined, elongated silhouette. The goal appears to be an expressive script that feels personal and stylish rather than strictly traditional or formal.
Lowercase shows a notably small x-height relative to ascenders and descenders, giving text a delicate, vertical sparkle. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with rounded forms and minimal ornament, matching the script’s breezy pace.
