A slim, monoline cursive with a rightward slant and an airy, open rhythm. Strokes are smoothly rounded with gentle loops and occasional extended entry/exit strokes, giving many letters a connected, handwritten flow while still reading clearly when set as text. Uppercase forms are tall and simplified, with soft curves and minimal ornament, and the overall spacing feels lightly uneven in a natural, hand-drawn way.
Well suited to short-to-medium lines where a human touch is desired: invitations, greeting cards, boutique packaging, social media graphics, and pull quotes. It also works as an accent in branding systems—paired with a clean sans or serif—to add approachability in headings, signatures, and small bursts of copy.
The tone is warm and personable, like quick, neat handwriting on a note or card. Its buoyant curves and relaxed irregularity add a lighthearted, inviting feel without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to emulate tidy everyday cursive with consistent monoline strokes and gentle looping, aiming for an informal script that stays legible in sentence settings. The intent reads as friendly and approachable rather than formal calligraphy, balancing charm with practical readability.
Ascenders tend to be prominent, and several letters use looped constructions (notably in capitals and in forms like g, y, and f), creating a lively baseline movement. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying simple and rounded so they blend comfortably with text.
