A calligraphic script with tall, slender proportions and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Strokes show a brush/pen rhythm: heavier verticals paired with fine hairline entry strokes, terminals, and cross-strokes. Letterforms are mostly upright with a lively baseline bounce, and many capitals feature prominent loops and swashes that create strong silhouettes. Spacing is compact and the overall texture alternates between dense black strokes and delicate hairlines, giving the face a crisp, ornamental sparkle in text.
Best suited to display settings where its high contrast and flourished capitals can shine—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, product labels, and short headline treatments. It works particularly well for names, titles, and highlighted words rather than long paragraphs, where the fine hairlines and tight rhythm may need generous sizing and spacing.
The overall tone is charming and expressive, balancing refined calligraphy with a slightly quirky, hand-drawn personality. It feels boutique and celebratory, with enough flourish to read as formal while remaining friendly and playful.
Designed to evoke a hand-lettered, calligraphic feel with pronounced contrast and decorative capitals, aiming for an elegant yet approachable script voice. The intent appears to prioritize distinctive, expressive shapes and a lively writing rhythm for standout display typography.
Capitals are especially decorative and can dominate at smaller sizes due to their height and looping forms. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same high-contrast logic, with thin connecting strokes and occasional exaggerated curves that add character to short phrases.
