A tall, right-leaning handwritten script with a monoline feel and gently rounded terminals. Strokes are smooth and continuous, with occasional looped entries and exits that create a flowing rhythm in words. Uppercase forms are slender and elongated with simple, calligraphic structures, while lowercase shapes stay compact with a notably short x-height and long, swinging ascenders and descenders. Spacing is open and the overall texture is light, giving lines of text a fast, sketch-like momentum rather than a rigid, geometric regularity.
Well-suited to short, expressive text where a human touch is desired—brand wordmarks, packaging callouts, social posts, invitations, and quote graphics. It also works effectively for headings and subheads, while longer paragraphs may benefit from generous tracking and leading to preserve clarity.
The font conveys an informal, personable tone—like quick marker lettering on a note or label. Its narrow, tall silhouettes and lively joins feel energetic and contemporary, balancing legibility with a spontaneous, human cadence.
Designed to capture the look of quick, confident handwriting with a clean, contemporary smoothness. The emphasis appears to be on tall, elegant proportions and fluid connectivity, delivering an approachable script style that feels personal without becoming overly decorative.
Capital letters tend to read as simplified script caps rather than formal calligraphic capitals, helping maintain a consistent word rhythm. Numerals follow the same upright-to-slanted, handwritten logic, keeping stroke weight even and forms loosely drawn for a cohesive set.
