A tall, airy cursive script with a clean monoline feel and gently tapered terminals. Letterforms are narrow and vertical in proportion, with long ascenders and descenders, small counters, and occasional looped strokes on capitals and key lowercase forms. The rhythm reads as consistently handwritten rather than mechanically uniform, with modest baseline liveliness and simplified joins that keep words legible at display sizes.
Well-suited to short, expressive text such as headlines, quotes, cards, invites, labels, and social graphics where a friendly handwritten tone is desired. It performs best at medium to large sizes, where the thin strokes and tight interior spaces remain clear.
The overall tone is lighthearted and personable, like neat marker or pen handwriting used for cheerful notes and informal headlines. Its looping caps and slender build give it a whimsical, boutique feel without becoming overly ornate.
Designed to provide a neat, modern handwritten voice that feels informal and approachable while staying tidy enough for branding-oriented display typography. The narrow proportions and tall forms suggest an intention to save horizontal space and add elegant verticality in titles.
Capitals are relatively tall with simple, sweeping entry strokes, while lowercase forms stay compact with minimal ornamentation and a restrained connection style. Numerals follow the same narrow, handwritten logic and feel visually coherent alongside the letters.
