A tall, tightly set sans with a pronounced rightward slant and a light, pen-drawn stroke. Forms are built from smooth, continuous curves and tapered joins, giving the outlines a calligraphic rhythm while staying largely unadorned. Counters are open and rounded, terminals are softly finished, and several letters use looped constructions (notably in the lowercase), producing a flowing texture. Uppercase proportions are elongated and narrow, while lowercase shows a notably small x-height and long ascenders/descenders, creating an energetic vertical cadence in words.
Well suited to display typography where its tall, rhythmic italic motion can define a voice—such as posters, titles, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes where a light, expressive sans is desired and generous spacing is available.
The overall tone is breezy and expressive, combining a mid‑century/retro sign-painting feel with a modern, clean simplicity. Its narrow, leaning silhouettes and looping details read as personable and slightly playful rather than formal or technical.
Likely designed to offer an elegant, handwritten-leaning sans for display use, prioritizing a smooth pen-like flow, compact horizontal footprint, and distinctive word silhouettes over dense text readability.
In text, the small x-height and long extenders create distinctive word shapes with a lot of vertical movement. Numerals and capitals maintain the same slender, smooth-curved construction, helping headlines feel cohesive, but the delicate strokes suggest best results at display sizes or in high-contrast printing.
