A delicate, monoline script with a consistent rightward slant and long, flowing entry and exit strokes. Letterforms are narrow and lightly drawn, with rounded bowls, soft turns, and frequent loops in ascenders and capitals. Lowercase forms keep a compact body with tall ascenders and deep, sweeping descenders, creating a lively vertical rhythm. Spacing and widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a hand-drawn cadence while maintaining readable, well-formed shapes in both text and numerals.
Works best for short-to-medium phrases where the light stroke and looping forms can breathe, such as invitations, greeting cards, quotes, packaging accents, and lifestyle branding. It can also serve as a secondary script for logos or headers when paired with a sturdier text face for body copy.
The overall tone is light, personable, and slightly refined—like neat, quick handwriting with a graceful flair. Its looping capitals and extended strokes add a touch of romance and charm without feeling overly formal. The thin line and open counters keep it feeling airy and approachable.
Designed to capture the feel of tidy cursive handwriting with a smooth, continuous flow and expressive capitals. The emphasis appears to be on elegance through simplicity—thin, even strokes and rhythmic joins—rather than heavy calligraphic contrast.
Capitals tend to be prominent and gestural, often starting with a lifted lead-in and finishing with a long taper. Descenders on letters like g, j, y, and z swing generously below the baseline, and the numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple, clean constructions.
