A slim, handwritten cursive with a consistent rightward slant and a mostly monoline stroke that shows mild pressure variation at turns. Letterforms are tall and narrow with generous ascenders and descenders, and a compact lowercase body that keeps the x-height visually modest. Curves are open and rounded, with frequent entry/exit strokes and occasional simplified joins that keep words flowing without becoming overly continuous. Overall spacing feels slightly loose and irregular in a natural way, reinforcing the hand-drawn rhythm across both capitals and lowercase.
Works well for short to medium-length text where a personal, handwritten feel is desired—greeting cards, invitations, quotes, and social media graphics. It can also suit packaging accents, labels, or headings where a light, friendly script texture is needed without heavy ornamentation.
The font reads as friendly and informal, like quick note-taking or a personal inscription. Its light, airy texture and looping forms give it a gentle, slightly nostalgic tone, while the uneven rhythm keeps it approachable rather than polished or formal.
Designed to capture a natural, everyday cursive handwriting look with a light touch and flowing movement. The tall proportions and modest lowercase body suggest an emphasis on elegance and airiness while maintaining casual readability in display and highlight text.
Capitals tend to be simple, upright-leaning gestures with minimal ornamentation, while the lowercase carries most of the character through loops, long stems, and soft terminals. Numerals match the handwritten feel, with open shapes and relaxed construction that stays visually consistent with the letters.
