A relaxed handwritten script with a lightly modulated, pen-like stroke and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are narrow and tall with long ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase bodies, creating an airy texture and lively vertical rhythm. Curves are rounded and slightly elastic, with occasional looped entries and soft terminals; connections appear informal and intermittent rather than strictly continuous. Capitals are simple and open, sized to sit comfortably with the lowercase without becoming overly ornate.
Works well for short to medium-length phrases where a personal, hand-written tone is desirable—greeting cards, invitations, social media graphics, pull quotes, and light lifestyle packaging. It is best suited to headlines and supportive text rather than dense paragraphs, where the narrow, tall proportions can feel busy at small sizes.
The overall tone feels approachable and conversational, like neat notes written with a fine pen. Its bouncy rhythm and gentle loops add a touch of whimsy while staying legible, making it feel warm, personal, and lightly upbeat rather than formal.
Designed to capture an everyday cursive note style with clean, legible forms and just enough looping to suggest handwriting. The intention appears to balance charm and readability, offering a casual script that feels natural in both mixed-case words and expressive title casing.
The numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with rounded shapes and a casual, drawn-by-hand consistency. Spacing and stroke endings favor a natural, unforced flow, giving the text a slightly uneven, human cadence that reads well at medium display sizes.
