A slender, monoline handwritten script with a pronounced rightward slant and tall, elongated proportions. Strokes are smooth and lightly pressured, with rounded terminals and frequent looped constructions in both capitals and lowercase. Letterforms favor narrow counters and a delicate, slightly bouncy rhythm; spacing is open enough to keep words readable despite the condensed shapes. The uppercase set is simple and upright in structure but drawn with the same flowing, pen-like motion, while numerals are similarly thin and rounded with a hand-drawn irregularity.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display copy where a human, handwritten presence is desired—greeting cards, invitations, personal stationery, pull quotes, and social media graphics. It can also add a casual signature-like tone to packaging or small branding moments when paired with a sturdy text face.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick neat handwriting in a journal or on a note. Its looping strokes and tall silhouette add a light, whimsical charm without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to emulate quick, clean cursive handwriting with a light, flowing pen stroke. The intent appears to balance charm and readability through consistent monoline construction, tall proportions, and restrained decoration.
Capitals tend to be tall and linear with minimal ornament, while several lowercase forms rely on ascenders and gentle loops to create character. In the sample text, long words remain legible, but the narrow construction and delicate stroke suggest it works best when given a bit of size or generous tracking.
