A formal, handwritten script with tall, slender proportions and pronounced stroke contrast. The letterforms show a calligraphic rhythm: thick vertical strokes paired with hairline entry/exit strokes and tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and looped, with frequent ascenders that extend well above the cap height and occasional descenders that sweep into gentle hooks. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, giving the texture a lively, hand-rendered cadence while remaining largely upright and controlled.
Best suited for display settings where its tall, high-contrast strokes and flourished capitals can be appreciated—such as logos, boutique branding, packaging, invitations, and short headlines. It can work in brief editorial accents or pull quotes, but the delicate hairlines and animated widths make it less ideal for long paragraphs or small UI text.
The overall tone feels elegant and slightly whimsical, like inked calligraphy used for personal correspondence or boutique branding. Its high-contrast strokes and delicate hairlines add a refined, ornamental character, while the irregular, handwritten flow keeps it approachable rather than rigidly formal.
The design appears intended to capture the feel of neat, inked calligraphy in a compact, vertical silhouette, balancing ornamental swashes with legible, upright letterforms. Its variable rhythm and decorative capitals suggest a focus on expressive, premium-looking typography for names, titles, and statement phrases.
Capitals often feature distinctive swashes and elongated stems that create strong vertical emphasis, especially in letters like A, D, H, and T. Lowercase forms lean toward a semi-connected script feel—many characters suggest joining behavior through extended exit strokes, though the texture reads cleanly in mixed-case words. Numerals continue the same calligraphic contrast, with a particularly decorative 2 and 3 that reinforce the playful, display-oriented personality.
