A monoline handwritten script with a fine, pen-like stroke and a lively rightward slant. Letterforms are built from long, flowing curves and occasional looped joins, with generous ascenders and descenders that create a tall, open vertical rhythm. Capitals are expressive and oversized, often formed with single continuous strokes and soft swells, while lowercase remains compact with a notably small body and simple, quick counters. Spacing and widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, producing an organic texture rather than a rigid, typographic grid.
Well-suited to short to medium display text such as invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, product packaging, and social media headlines where a personal, handwritten tone is desired. It can also work for signatures or brand marks when paired with a simpler supporting text face.
The overall tone feels intimate and airy, like a quick note written with a light hand. Its thin strokes and looping gestures give it a gentle, romantic sensibility, while the uneven rhythm keeps it informal and human.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of cursive handwriting—light pressure, continuous motion, and natural variation—while remaining consistent enough for set text. Emphasis is placed on elegant capitals and flowing word shapes rather than strict uniformity.
Readability is strongest at display sizes where the fine stroke and small lowercase details can breathe. Numerals and capitals share the same handwritten logic, with rounded forms and occasional extended entry/exit strokes that add flourish in longer words.
