A delicate, monoline cursive with a consistently slanted, handwritten rhythm. Letterforms are tall and narrow, with generous ascenders and descenders that create a vertical, airy texture. Strokes stay smooth and even, with rounded joins, occasional open counters, and simple looped constructions in letters like g, y, and j. Capitals are lightly embellished and simplified rather than ornate, and the overall spacing feels open, emphasizing a light, quick pen-motion feel.
Well suited to short, expressive text such as invitations, greeting cards, quotes, product packaging accents, and social graphics. It performs best at display sizes where the thin strokes and tight, handwritten details remain crisp, and as a complementary accent paired with a simpler text face.
The tone is informal and personable, like neat everyday handwriting, but with enough refinement to feel graceful. Its slim strokes and flowing movement read as light and understated, lending a calm, approachable elegance without becoming formal or calligraphic.
Designed to capture a clean, modern cursive handwriting feel with a light touch and consistent forward motion. The narrow proportions and restrained capitals suggest an intention to stay legible and stylish while maintaining an authentic hand-drawn personality.
Figures follow the same slender, handwritten logic as the letters, with minimal ornament and clear directional slant. In longer lines, the connecting flow and tall extenders become a prominent part of the texture, so generous leading helps keep descenders and ascenders from visually crowding.
