A brisk, handwritten script with a consistent monoline stroke and a pronounced rightward slant. Letterforms are narrow and upright in structure despite the italic angle, with open counters and rounded turns that keep the texture light and breathable. Capitals are tall and simplified, built from single, flowing strokes, while lowercase shows gentle loops and occasional partial connections that read as quick pen movement rather than fully formal joining. Ascenders are prominent and the x-height is notably small, creating a high-rise rhythm; numerals follow the same lean and monoline construction with smooth, handwritten curves.
Works well for short to medium phrases where a warm, handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, social graphics, packaging callouts, and quote treatments. It can also suit light branding accents when paired with a more neutral text face for supporting copy.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like a neat note written quickly with a fine pen. Its springy rhythm and relaxed shapes feel approachable and modern, with a hint of playful energy rather than ceremony.
Designed to capture the immediacy of everyday handwriting in a clean, legible script form. The simplified, monoline construction and compact lowercase aim for a casual, contemporary feel while remaining readable in sentence settings.
Stroke endings are clean and minimally finished, avoiding heavy calligraphic flicks; the baseline feel is slightly bouncy due to varied entry/exit strokes and lively proportions. Spacing appears comfortably open for a script, helping maintain clarity in longer lines as shown in the sample text.
