A fluid, handwritten script with a consistent slant and smooth, brush-pen modulation that stays largely monoline. Strokes taper gently at entries and exits, with rounded terminals and frequent looped forms, especially in ascenders and capitals. Letterforms are compact and upright-to-slanted with a buoyant baseline rhythm and occasional open counters, giving the set an airy, quick-written feel. Capitals are larger and more gestural, often built from sweeping curves and long lead-in strokes that add emphasis without heavy weight contrast.
Well-suited for short to medium display copy where a personable handwritten tone is desired: greeting cards, invitations, lifestyle branding, social posts, packaging accents, and quote graphics. It performs best when given breathing room, where the loops and joining strokes can read cleanly.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like neat, confident handwriting used for notes, invitations, or personal branding. Its energetic swashes and soft curves lend a lightly romantic, approachable voice while still reading clearly at display sizes.
Designed to emulate quick, tidy cursive written with a brush or felt-tip pen, prioritizing flow, friendliness, and expressive capitals for standout words and headings.
The numerals follow the same handwritten rhythm, with simple, slightly calligraphic shapes and rounded turns. In running text, letter connections appear natural and continuous, with occasional extended joins and looped transitions that reinforce a spontaneous, hand-drawn character.
