A tall, lightly slanted handwritten script with a narrow footprint and a lively, elastic rhythm. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with teardrop terminals and occasional tapered entry/exit strokes, giving letters a pen-drawn, calligraphic feel. Lowercase forms are compact in the body with notably short x-height, while ascenders and descenders stretch long and elegant; counters are open and rounded, and joins are loose rather than fully continuous. Capitals are simplified, airy, and slightly decorative, mixing print-like clarity with script-style curves for an informal display texture.
Best suited to headlines, short quotes, social graphics, and packaging where a friendly handwritten voice is desired. It can work for light subheads or captions when set with ample leading, but its narrow proportions and prominent extenders make it most effective in display settings rather than dense body copy.
The overall tone is cheerful and personable, like quick but careful hand lettering for notes, invitations, or boutique branding. Its tall, looping forms add a touch of nostalgia and whimsy, balancing charm with legibility in short phrases.
Designed to emulate modern hand lettering with a calligraphic brush/pen contrast, prioritizing personality and vertical elegance over strict uniformity. The letterforms aim for an approachable, crafted look that feels informal yet polished for contemporary branding and decorative text.
Numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast handwriting model, with distinctive, curvy figures (notably 2, 3, and 8) that read best at display sizes. The font’s vertical emphasis and long extenders create a strong line texture; generous line spacing helps prevent ascenders/descenders from visually tangling in paragraphs.
