A slender, calligraphic script with a consistent rightward slant and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes alternate between whisper-thin hairlines and slightly fuller downstrokes, giving the letterforms a refined, pen-drawn feel. Proportions are tall and compressed, with long ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase bodies; joins are selective rather than fully continuous, so words read as flowing handwriting with intermittent connections. Capitals are simple but expressive, featuring extended entry strokes and occasional soft flourishes that add motion without becoming overly ornate.
Well suited for boutique branding, beauty/fashion applications, wedding stationery, greeting cards, and product packaging where a refined handwritten signature is desired. It performs best in short phrases, headlines, and name marks, especially with generous spacing and solid contrast against the background.
The overall tone is graceful and intimate, balancing sophistication with an informal handwritten charm. Its lightness and sweeping curves suggest romance and premium lifestyle styling rather than utilitarian text setting.
Designed to evoke a modern calligraphy look with an emphasis on height, elegance, and expressive stroke contrast. The aim appears to be a stylish, signature-like script that adds personality and polish to display typography while remaining relatively clean and readable for a cursive face.
The rhythm is driven by narrow counters, elongated verticals, and occasional looped forms (notably in letters like g, y, and z), which create a lively baseline dance. Numerals follow the same thin, drawn character and feel best used at display sizes where the hairlines stay crisp.
