A slanted, brush-like script with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered stroke endings. Letterforms are compact and tall with a relatively small x-height, creating a crisp, vertical rhythm despite the italic angle. Curves are smooth and slightly elastic, with frequent entry/exit strokes and occasional loops that give the line a continuous, handwritten flow. Capitals are larger and more expressive, while lowercase forms stay lean and quick, with delicate joins and narrow internal counters.
Well-suited to branding marks, beauty/fashion packaging, invitations, and editorial or campaign headlines where a refined handwritten voice is desired. It also works for short pull quotes, product names, and social graphics where the high-contrast brush texture can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The overall tone is polished yet informal, reading as a confident, personal hand rather than a rigid formal script. Its sharp tapers and sweeping curves lend a romantic, boutique feel, while the brisk rhythm keeps it energetic and contemporary.
The design appears intended to capture a modern brush-pen signature aesthetic: compact, stylish letterforms with expressive capitals and smooth connections to create fluid word shapes. The emphasis on contrast and tapering suggests a focus on elegant display use with a handcrafted finish.
Contrast is created by pressure-like thick strokes on downstrokes and lighter upstrokes, which helps words feel dynamic at display sizes. Numerals follow the same cursive logic, appearing slender and slightly calligraphic, suitable for headings and short bursts of text rather than dense setting.
