A tall, handwritten script with slender, monoline strokes and a pronounced rightward slant. Letterforms are narrow and vertically stretched, with long ascenders and descenders that create a light, airy texture. Strokes show a natural marker/pen rhythm—slight swelling on curves and tapered terminals—while counters stay open and simple. Spacing is moderately loose for a script, and the overall line feels flowing even when characters are not fully connected.
Works well for short to medium-length text where a personal tone is desired—logos, boutique branding, packaging accents, invitations, and social posts. It is especially effective in headlines, pull quotes, and name/label applications where its tall, delicate rhythm can be showcased without needing dense readability.
The font reads as informal and personable, like quick, neat handwriting meant to feel friendly rather than formal. Its height and delicate stroke weight lend a graceful, contemporary feel, while the loose joins and varied letter widths keep it relaxed and human.
Designed to emulate clean, stylish handwriting with a lightweight presence and modern verticality. The aim appears to balance legibility with an expressive, hand-drawn cadence that feels spontaneous but controlled.
Uppercase forms are simplified and prominent, with rounded, loop-leaning shapes and occasional single-stroke constructions that enhance the handwritten authenticity. Numerals follow the same light, cursive sensibility, staying narrow and airy for consistency in mixed settings.
