A delicate handwritten script with tall, slender letterforms and a lightly textured pen stroke. The lines stay mostly monoline but show subtle pressure changes at curves and terminals, with soft, rounded joins and frequent looped forms. Capitals are large and expressive with long entry/exit strokes, while lowercase letters are compact with a notably low x-height and prominent ascenders/descenders. Spacing feels loose and breathable, and the rhythm alternates between simple upright stems and sweeping curves that give words a lively, slightly irregular flow.
Well suited for short to medium-length display text where a personal, handwritten touch is desired—such as boutique branding, packaging labels, invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It can also work for pull quotes and headings when set with generous line spacing to preserve its airy stroke and looping details.
The overall tone is light and personable, reading as informal and approachable rather than formal calligraphy. Its thin strokes and airy spacing lend a gentle, elegant feel, while the playful loops keep it conversational and relaxed.
Designed to emulate quick, elegant handwriting with expressive capitals and a light pen touch, prioritizing personality and flow over rigid uniformity. The set aims for a graceful, modern handwritten look that remains legible while retaining a natural, drawn-by-hand character.
Several letters feature extended cross strokes and long curved terminals that create a strong horizontal sweep in running text. Numerals match the handwritten character with open shapes and minimal ornament, keeping the texture consistent across mixed content.
