A relaxed handwritten script with monoline strokes and a right-leaning, flowing rhythm. Letterforms are tall and slim with generous ascenders and descenders, and a notably small x-height that gives the lowercase a delicate, airy feel. Strokes are smooth and rounded with occasional looped entries and exits, and many lowercase forms show soft cursive connections while still keeping counters open for clarity. Capitals read as simplified, drawn-by-hand forms that pair cleanly with the slender lowercase, and figures follow the same light, linear construction.
Well suited to short-to-medium copy where a personal voice is desired, such as greeting cards, invitations, product packaging, and social media graphics. It also works nicely for pull quotes, headings, and signatures, especially when set with ample line spacing to showcase the tall, looping extenders.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, like neat quick handwriting on a note or label. Its buoyant proportions and looping details add a gentle playfulness without becoming overly decorative, keeping the mood friendly and conversational.
Designed to capture a neat, modern cursive handwriting look with an emphasis on lightness and vertical elegance. The restrained monoline construction and open shapes suggest an intention to stay readable while still feeling unmistakably hand-written.
Spacing appears loose and breathable, helping the thin strokes stay legible at text sizes. The joins and terminals vary slightly in length and shape, reinforcing an authentic hand-drawn cadence while maintaining consistent stroke weight and rounded forms.
