A lively handwritten script with tall, slender proportions and a bouncy baseline rhythm. Strokes are smooth with subtly tapered joins and rounded terminals, giving a brush-pen feel without heavy texture. Letterforms lean mostly upright and favor narrow bowls and long ascenders/descenders, while widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph for an organic, drawn-by-hand cadence. Connections are implied through flowing entry/exit strokes, and counters remain open enough to keep the texture airy in words.
Works best for short-to-medium display text such as logos, product labels, invitations, social posts, pull quotes, and cheerful headings where personality is more important than strict regularity. In longer paragraphs, the narrow, looping forms can build a strong texture, so generous tracking and line spacing help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is warm and personable, with a light, whimsical energy. Its looping shapes and springy verticality evoke casual note-taking and boutique signage, reading as approachable rather than formal or corporate.
Designed to capture a clean, consistent handwritten look with decorative script cues—combining legible, upright construction with playful loops and swashes for expressive display typography.
Capitals show decorative swashes and simplified calligraphic structure, creating a strong header presence. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with rounded curves and slightly irregular proportions that reinforce the informal character.
