A delicate monoline script with very tall ascenders and a compact lowercase core, creating a high-contrast silhouette through scale rather than stroke weight. Strokes are smooth and slightly elastic, with frequent loops, long entry/exit strokes, and occasional terminal flourishes (notably in capitals). Letterforms stay mostly upright and narrow, with open counters and generous white space; connections appear selective rather than fully continuous, giving words a lightly stitched rhythm. Numerals follow the same slim, handwritten logic with simple curves and minimal ornament.
Well-suited to short, expressive text such as greeting cards, invitations, gift tags, captions, pull quotes, and lifestyle branding where a handmade voice is desired. It can also work for boutique packaging and small headers when you want vertical elegance and a playful, airy texture; for best results, use at comfortable display sizes rather than dense body copy.
The overall tone is lighthearted and personable, with a whimsical, diary-like charm. Its tall loops and gentle swashes add a touch of playful elegance without feeling formal, reading as friendly and handcrafted rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to emulate neat, looped handwriting with a tall, slender cadence and occasional swash-like accents. It prioritizes charm and personality through elongated proportions and simple monoline strokes, offering a decorative handwritten look that remains relatively clean and readable in short phrases.
Capitals tend to be highly individualized and decorative, often taller and more flamboyant than the lowercase, which can create strong visual emphasis at word starts. The baseline feel is slightly lively, and the narrow proportions make spacing and kerning especially noticeable in longer text strings.
