A very thin, monoline handwritten script with tall ascenders and compact lowercase that sits low on the baseline, creating a pronounced vertical rhythm. Strokes are smooth and slightly irregular, with occasional hook-like terminals and soft loops that keep the texture lively. Uppercase forms are narrow and elongated, often built from single continuous gestures with open counters and minimal crossbar emphasis. Spacing is variable and organic, and the overall color stays light and open, especially in longer text.
Works best for short, expressive copy such as invitations, greeting cards, quotes, or boutique packaging where a personal handwritten feel is desired. It’s well suited to display-sized headings, names, and pull quotes, and can add a light, bespoke accent when paired with a simple text face.
The tone feels intimate and lightly eccentric, like quick pen notes or a personal inscription. Its wiry lines and looping capitals lend a poetic, storybook sensibility, balancing elegance with a casual, human imperfection.
Designed to evoke a natural pen-written cursive with tall, narrow proportions and a gentle, looping cadence. The intention appears to prioritize personality and elegance over strict uniformity, giving text a handwritten signature-like presence.
The font’s character is driven by its tall proportions and fine stroke weight, which can make small sizes feel faint while giving large sizes a distinctive, airy presence. Capitals stand out strongly against the understated lowercase, producing a natural, handwritten hierarchy in mixed-case settings.
