A delicate, monoline handwritten script with a rightward slant and tall, looping ascenders and descenders. Strokes stay consistently thin with gentle swelling at curves, giving the letters a light, pen-drawn rhythm. Uppercase forms are simplified and narrow, while lowercase letters favor open bowls and long, linear entrances/exits that often suggest connection even when not fully joined. Spacing is relaxed and the baseline is slightly buoyant, contributing to an informal, natural flow in words and sentences. Numerals and capitals echo the same slender, handwritten construction with minimal ornament and smooth curves.
Well-suited for short, expressive text such as invitations, greeting cards, personal stationery, pull quotes, and social media graphics. It can also work as an accent face on packaging or labels where a handwritten, personable note is desired, especially when paired with a straightforward sans or serif for supporting copy.
The overall tone feels intimate and approachable, like quick neat notes or a personal signature. Its light touch and looping movement read as soft, optimistic, and handmade rather than formal or technical.
The letterforms appear designed to capture a clean, contemporary handwritten feel—lightweight and flowing, with enough consistency for repeated use while preserving the spontaneity of pen script.
The design relies on long vertical strokes and extended loops for character, so readability holds best when given enough size and line spacing. Round letters remain open and uncluttered, while the most distinctive personality comes from the tall l, h, k, and y forms and the simplified, airy capitals.
