A tall, hairline script with a monoline stroke and a pronounced rightward slant. Letterforms are narrow and elongated, with long ascenders and descenders and a noticeably small x-height that emphasizes vertical rhythm. Curves are lightly looped and simplified, and terminals tend to be tapered or softly hooked, giving the forms a quick, drawn-in-pen feel. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, contributing to an organic texture rather than rigid uniformity.
Best suited to short-form display use where its delicate strokes and tall proportions can breathe—invites, cards, signature-style branding, pull quotes, and lightweight headlines. It reads most confidently at larger sizes and with generous tracking or line spacing to preserve its airy texture.
The overall tone is light and refined, with a breezy, intimate character that feels like quick personal handwriting. Its thin strokes and stretched proportions add a fashionable, slightly whimsical elegance, more expressive than formal.
The design appears intended to capture a spontaneous, pen-drawn cursive look with a refined silhouette—prioritizing elegance and motion over strict regularity. Its narrow, elongated forms and minimal stroke weight aim for a graceful handwritten presence in display settings.
In the samples, connections appear intermittent rather than fully continuous, with many letters joining loosely while others break cleanly; this creates a flowing line without becoming dense. Numerals match the same slender, handwritten construction and sit comfortably alongside the letters.
