A monoline handwritten script with tall, slender letterforms and generous vertical extenders. Strokes keep a consistent, pen-drawn thickness with minimal contrast, and curves dominate the construction through soft loops and rounded terminals. Spacing is uneven in a natural way, with variable advance widths and occasional partial connections between letters; capitals are larger and more gestural, often featuring long entry/exit strokes. The lowercase has a very small x-height relative to ascenders/descenders, giving words a light, floating rhythm.
This font is well suited to short, expressive text such as invitations, greeting cards, pull quotes, and lifestyle branding where a personal handwritten tone is desirable. It works best at medium to large sizes where the fine monoline strokes and tight x-height remain clear, and where its tall extenders have room to breathe.
The overall tone is lighthearted and personable, with an airy, sketchbook feel. Its looping forms and relaxed rhythm suggest an informal, approachable voice—more playful than formal, and more decorative than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to capture a clean, lightly looped handwriting style that feels elegant yet casual. Emphasis is placed on tall proportions, smooth curves, and expressive capitals to add personality and flair to display text.
Several capitals rely on elongated vertical strokes and looped bowls, which can create striking silhouettes but also increase the importance of line spacing. The figures are simple and similarly monoline, matching the hand-drawn character rather than a rigid tabular look.
