A delicate cursive script with tall, slender letterforms and a consistent, lightly textured pen stroke. Curves are smooth and loop-driven, with frequent entry/exit strokes that encourage flowing connections in lowercase. Capitals are simple and upright-leaning with occasional flourish-like hooks, while lowercase shows long ascenders/descenders and open counters that keep words readable. Numerals are similarly light and rounded, echoing the same handwritten rhythm.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where a personal signature-like feel is desired, such as invitations, greeting cards, pull quotes, product tags, and social graphics. It can also work as an accent face paired with a simple sans for headings or brand moments that need warmth and informality.
The overall tone feels personal and relaxed, like neat handwriting in a notebook, with a slightly playful bounce from the loops and long strokes. Its airy construction and gentle slant give it a soft, romantic friendliness without becoming overly ornate.
Designed to mimic clean, flowing handwriting with a light pen and generous loops, balancing expressiveness with legibility. The tall proportions and restrained stroke weight suggest an intent to stay elegant and unobtrusive while still clearly feeling hand-drawn.
Spacing appears naturally irregular in a handwriting way, with some letters extending into neighboring space via loops and terminals. The long descenders (notably in letters like g, j, y) create a lively baseline and add expressiveness in longer phrases.
