A casual handwritten script with a smooth, marker-like monoline stroke and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are tall and narrow with long ascenders and descenders, compact lowercase counters, and a notably small x-height that emphasizes the vertical rhythm. Curves are rounded and slightly elastic, with occasional looped joins and simplified terminals that keep the texture clean rather than overly textured. Capitals are upright and open, mixing print-like construction with handwritten softness, while lowercase forms stay quick and fluid with modest connections.
It works well for short-to-medium phrases where a personal voice is desirable—greeting cards, invitations, quote graphics, social media, and casual packaging. The tall, narrow proportions also suit vertical layouts, headlines, and accent text where you want handwritten character without heavy ornament.
The font reads as informal and personable, like neat handwriting done with a felt-tip pen. Its narrow, tall rhythm gives it an energetic, upbeat tone without feeling overly decorative, making it feel friendly and approachable.
The design appears intended to capture tidy, everyday cursive with a narrow footprint and a smooth pen-stroke feel, balancing legibility with an expressive, handwritten rhythm.
The set shows a mix of connected and unconnected behavior depending on letters and spacing, producing a natural handwritten cadence in words. Numerals follow the same slender, slightly tilted style, and the overall spacing keeps lines airy and legible at text sizes where the small x-height still holds up.
