A delicate, handwritten script with tall, slender proportions and a gentle rightward slant. Strokes are predominantly monoline with subtle pressure variation, and many forms are built from long loops and open counters. Uppercase letters feature prominent, swooping entry and exit strokes that create a calligraphic, signature-like presence, while lowercase letters stay small and light with compact bowls and frequent ascenders/descenders. Spacing is uneven in an intentional, handwritten way, and connections appear fluid in running text even when some letters remain partially separated.
This style works best for display-size text where its fine strokes and swashy capitals can be appreciated—such as signature treatments, boutique branding, invitations, greeting cards, and short quotes for social graphics. It is less suited to dense paragraphs or small UI sizes, where the very light construction and compact lowercase can reduce clarity.
The font conveys a light, elegant informality—more like a quick personal signature or note than a formal calligraphic hand. Its looping forms and extended capitals add a playful, slightly romantic character that feels friendly and expressive.
The design appears intended to capture the spontaneity of neat, flowing handwriting while adding extra flourish in the capitals for a distinctive, personal-mark feel. It prioritizes elegance and motion over strict regularity, aiming for an expressive script that reads as human and refined.
Capitals are markedly larger and more decorative than the lowercase, which creates strong contrast in hierarchy and can dominate short words. The numerals follow the same airy, handwritten rhythm and remain simple and readable, with a consistent thin stroke and rounded movement.
