A lively handwritten script with tall, slender proportions and a rhythmic, slightly bouncy baseline. Strokes show clear calligraphic contrast, with thin hairlines and fuller downstrokes that feel brush- or pen-driven rather than geometric. Letterforms are rounded and loop-friendly, with frequent entry/exit strokes and occasional partial connections that keep words flowing without becoming rigidly continuous. Capitals are narrow and elongated, often built from simple verticals and open bowls, while lowercase maintains compact counters and a relatively small x-height for an airy, nimble texture.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where a friendly handwritten voice is desirable: boutique branding, packaging labels, social posts, invitations, greeting cards, and pull quotes. It can work for headings and emphasized phrases, while long body text may feel busy due to the high contrast and narrow rhythm.
The font reads as informal and personable, with a lighthearted, doodled confidence. Its looping joins and brisk stroke changes give it a conversational tone—more handwritten note than formal calligraphy.
Designed to capture an expressive, everyday cursive hand with a clean, upright stance and energetic loops. The intent appears to balance legibility with personality, delivering a quick, modern handwritten look that remains cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Spacing and widths vary subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a natural hand-drawn cadence. Numerals follow the same slim, high-contrast logic and feel consistent in color and movement with the letters.
