A slanted, brush-pen script with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered terminals. Letterforms are compact and airy, with tall ascenders, deep descenders, and a notably petite lowercase proportion that emphasizes the vertical rhythm. Strokes often start with fine hairlines and swell quickly into bold downstrokes, while joins remain smooth and continuous, giving the line a flowing, handwritten cadence. Capitals are larger and more decorative, featuring broad curves and occasional open counters that read as gestural rather than rigidly constructed.
This font suits short-to-medium display settings such as invitations, event collateral, beauty and lifestyle branding, packaging labels, and headline or pull-quote typography. It performs best when given room to breathe, where the contrast and swashy capitals can read clearly without crowding.
The overall tone is refined and expressive, balancing polish with a spontaneous, handwritten feel. Its swashy capitals and high-contrast strokes suggest a boutique, fashion-forward sensibility with a romantic, invitation-like warmth.
Designed to emulate modern brush calligraphy, it aims to deliver an elegant handwritten signature look with decorative capitals and a lively stroke rhythm for standout display typography.
The texture alternates between tight, controlled letter bodies and more expansive entrance/exit strokes, creating lively word shapes. Numerals share the same calligraphic logic, with curved forms and tapered ends that keep them visually consistent with the letters.
