A light, handwritten script with a mostly monoline stroke and subtle pressure variation at curves and terminals. Letterforms are tall and narrow with generous ascenders and descenders, and a relatively small x-height that gives the lowercase a delicate, wiry feel. Connections are suggested in the rhythm and entry/exit strokes, but many letters remain partially disconnected, creating an open, sketch-like texture. Curves are loose and slightly bouncy, with occasional extended swashes on capitals and a soft, organic baseline flow.
Works well for short display settings where a personal, handwritten touch is desired—greeting cards, invitations, quote graphics, social media headers, and boutique packaging accents. It is best used at comfortable sizes with ample spacing, letting the thin strokes and tall proportions stay clear.
The overall tone is relaxed and personable, like quick neat handwriting used for notes or headings. Its thin strokes and looping forms add a gentle elegance without feeling formal, leaning more whimsical and intimate than polished calligraphy.
The design appears intended to mimic tidy, quick cursive handwriting—lightweight, narrow, and expressive—prioritizing personality and flow over strict uniformity. The tall proportions and small x-height suggest a focus on elegant, note-like headings and signature-style lines.
Capitals tend to be simplified and slender with occasional flourish, while lowercase forms emphasize long verticals and looped joins (notably in letters like f, g, j, y). Numerals are equally light and hand-drawn, matching the letter rhythm and keeping a consistent, informal voice across the set.
