A loose, monoline handwritten script with a brisk rightward slant and compact proportions. Strokes look pen-drawn, with slightly uneven curves and occasional wobble that gives it an organic, unpolished rhythm. Letterforms are narrow and upright in their construction but lean consistently, with small counters and simplified terminals; ascenders are tall and prominent while lowercase bodies stay small, creating a high ascender-to-x-height ratio. Connections appear intermittent in running text, more like quickly written note-taking than fully continuous joining.
Well-suited to short, expressive text where a personal handwritten tone is desirable—greeting cards, invitations, quotes, packaging callouts, and social graphics. It also works for informal headings or annotations in posters and editorial layouts, while longer paragraphs may benefit from generous size and line spacing for clarity.
The font reads as friendly and spontaneous, like a quick handwritten message or a personal annotation. Its lively loops and irregularities add charm and approachability, keeping the tone informal and human rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to capture the immediacy of everyday handwriting with a light, quick pen feel. The narrow, slanted forms and loopy gestures aim to deliver personality and warmth, emphasizing spontaneity over typographic precision.
Uppercase forms are simple and open, pairing well with the narrow lowercase, while numerals follow the same handwritten logic with rounded turns and single-stroke construction. Spacing and rhythm feel intentionally relaxed, with natural variation in stroke flow that becomes part of the texture at text sizes.
