A slim, monoline cursive with a pronounced rightward slant and tall, elongated proportions. Strokes stay consistently fine, with smooth curves, looping entry/exit strokes, and occasional lifted joins that keep words readable rather than fully connected. Uppercase forms are simple and upright in structure but executed with handwritten fluidity, while lowercase features narrow bowls, long ascenders and descenders, and a light, springy baseline rhythm. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with slender, open shapes and minimal ornament.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a handwritten signature feel is desired, such as quotes, invitations, greeting cards, lifestyle branding, packaging accents, and social graphics. It’s especially effective for headings, names, and pull-quote lines where its tall rhythm and airy texture can stay crisp.
The overall tone feels personal and breezy, like quick neat handwriting with a touch of refinement. Its narrow, elongated forms and soft loops give it an elegant, contemporary note while remaining relaxed and informal.
Likely designed to capture a clean, modern handwritten look that feels natural and fast, while maintaining enough consistency for repeated use in display settings. The narrow, elongated letterforms suggest an intent to provide an elegant script option that stays light on the page and stacks well in compact layouts.
Capitals and lowercase sit comfortably together, with capitals reading as understated rather than showy. The looped forms (notably in letters like g, y, f, and j) add motion and vertical emphasis, and the open, unshaded strokes keep the texture light even in longer lines.
