A slim, monoline handwritten script with a tidy, upright stance and gently rounded terminals. Strokes keep a consistent thickness and move with a smooth, pen-like rhythm, alternating between tall ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase forms. Letterforms are simplified and open, with frequent loops on ascenders and occasional entry/exit strokes that suggest connection while still reading clearly when unjoined. Numerals follow the same narrow, drawn quality with soft curves and minimal ornament.
Well suited for short, expressive copy such as quotes, greeting cards, invitations, and social graphics where a friendly handwritten voice is desired. It can also work on lightweight packaging or labels, especially when paired with a simple sans for supporting text.
The overall tone feels informal and approachable, like quick but careful note-taking. Its light, bouncy rhythm and looping forms add a playful, personable character without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to emulate neat, contemporary cursive handwriting with a light touch—prioritizing warmth and personality over rigid typographic regularity. The narrow, looping construction aims to keep words flowing while preserving legibility in mixed-case phrases.
Capitals are tall and slender, lending a slightly elegant silhouette, while lowercase maintains a relaxed, handwritten cadence. Spacing appears naturally uneven in a way that reinforces the hand-drawn authenticity, and the rounded shapes help keep text readable at display and short-text sizes.
