A narrow, handwritten script with a lively rightward slant and an airy, monoline feel. Strokes taper subtly at terminals, with rounded joins and occasional looped entries that mimic quick pen writing. Letterforms are tall and compact with generous ascenders/descenders, and spacing is slightly irregular in a natural, hand-drawn way. Uppercase characters read as simplified, single-stroke caps that pair cleanly with the more cursive lowercase.
Works best for short to medium-length text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, quotes, social graphics, and light lifestyle packaging. The narrow proportions can help fit longer words into tight headline spaces while keeping a casual tone.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like neat handwriting used for notes or casual headlines. Its buoyant rhythm and soft curves give it a friendly, approachable character with a hint of playfulness.
Designed to capture the look of quick, neat pen lettering—tall, slim, and slightly irregular—while staying readable in common display and caption scenarios. The consistent stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and numerals suggests an emphasis on cohesive, everyday handwriting rather than formal calligraphy.
Lowercase forms show intermittent connectivity and flowing exit strokes, but many letters still stand comfortably on their own, which helps maintain clarity in mixed-case text. Numerals are similarly narrow and handwritten, matching the stroke weight and terminal behavior of the letters.
