A delicate, monoline handwritten script with tall, slender proportions and generous vertical reach. Strokes stay consistently thin with subtle pressure variation, producing clean, open shapes and lightly looped terminals. Letterforms are largely upright with a smooth, continuous rhythm; joins appear natural and occasionally simplified, giving words a relaxed flow. Ascenders and descenders are notably long, while the x-height is compact, creating a light, high-contrast silhouette through space rather than stroke weight.
Well suited to short-to-medium display settings where a light, handwritten presence is desired—logos, boutique branding, packaging labels, invitations, and social media graphics. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when paired with a sturdier text face for body copy.
The overall tone is breezy and personable, balancing a casual handwritten feel with a hint of refinement. Its thin strokes and looping movement suggest a soft, graceful voice that reads as modern and approachable rather than formal or rigid.
Likely drawn to capture the immediacy of quick pen lettering while keeping forms clean and legible. The design emphasizes airy elegance and vertical rhythm, aiming for a contemporary signature-like look that still reads clearly in prominent sizes.
Spacing feels slightly irregular in a purposeful, handwritten way, and the narrow letterforms create an elongated texture across lines. Numerals follow the same light, hand-drawn logic and sit comfortably alongside the lowercase and capitals.
