A slim, monoline handwritten script with a tall, elongated vertical rhythm and generous ascenders/descenders. Strokes are smooth and lightly tapered in places, with rounded turns, occasional looped forms, and simple terminal finishes. The letterforms keep an upright stance while varying in width from glyph to glyph, creating an organic, hand-drawn texture. Spacing is open and the overall silhouette feels vertical and delicate, with modest joining behavior and a lively, slightly uneven baseline typical of handwriting.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—such as headlines, quotes, greeting cards, invitations, packaging accents, and social media graphics. The narrow, tall proportions make it particularly effective for vertical or space-conscious layouts, while the expressive capitals add personality to titles and names.
The tone is friendly and lightly whimsical, like neat marker or pen lettering made for notes and headings. Its tall, narrow forms give it an elegant, airy feel while still reading as informal and personal. Overall it suggests approachable, handmade charm rather than formal calligraphy.
The design appears intended to capture a clean, legible handwritten script with an elegant vertical emphasis and a relaxed, human rhythm. It prioritizes personality and a light, airy presence over strict uniformity, aiming for an approachable handwritten look suitable for display use.
Capitals are especially tall and expressive, often using single-stroke constructions and occasional decorative loops, which makes them stand out strongly in title case. Numerals are similarly slender and open, matching the monoline character and keeping a consistent handwritten cadence across text.
