A flowing handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and a brush-pen feel. Strokes are mostly monolinear with subtle thick–thin modulation, and terminals taper softly rather than ending bluntly. Letterforms are compact and narrow with tall ascenders and descenders, giving the lowercase a delicate, airy rhythm. Connections are fluid in text, with occasional open joins and long, sweeping entry/exit strokes that add momentum to words.
Well-suited to short-to-medium headlines where an approachable handwritten voice is desired, such as boutique branding, packaging callouts, café menus, invitations, and social media graphics. It can also work for pull quotes and emphasis lines when paired with a neutral text face for longer reading.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick yet practiced handwriting. Its brisk slant, elastic curves, and occasional flourish convey energy and warmth without feeling overly ornamental.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of cursive handwriting while remaining cohesive across a full basic character set. The narrow, slanted construction and smooth joins prioritize quick readability and a natural written cadence, with just enough flourish to make titles and names feel distinctive.
Capitals are more gestural and prominent than the lowercase, often using extended curves and loop-like strokes that read well as initials. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simple, fast forms and light curvature that keeps them visually consistent with the alphabet.
