A light, monoline handwritten script with a gentle rightward slant and smooth, continuous stroke flow. Letterforms are narrow-to-moderate in proportion with a compact x-height and generous ascenders/descenders, giving the line a tall, airy rhythm. Curves are rounded and slightly elastic, with occasional stroke tapering from pen pressure and subtle irregularities that keep the texture human. Capitals are simple and open, while lowercase forms use soft loops and hooked terminals; numerals follow the same relaxed, handwritten construction.
Well-suited for short-to-medium text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, gift tags, and casual packaging. It also works for pull quotes, social media graphics, and headings where a light, friendly script can add warmth without heavy visual weight.
The overall tone feels informal and personable, like neat journaling or a handwritten note. Its buoyant rhythm and looping joins add a lighthearted, approachable character that reads friendly rather than formal.
Designed to emulate an easy, everyday cursive hand with consistent monoline strokes and lively loops, balancing legibility with a natural handwritten feel. The compact x-height and tall extenders appear intended to keep the texture elegant and airy while remaining informal.
Spacing is open and the baseline is mostly steady, but small variations in stroke shape and join behavior create a natural, hand-drawn cadence. The italic movement and tall extenders help maintain clarity at display sizes while preserving an intentionally casual texture.
