A breezy handwritten script with a slender, pen-like line and gently varying stroke pressure. Letterforms are narrow and slightly right-leaning, with rounded turns, soft terminals, and frequent loops in ascenders and capitals. The rhythm is lively and a bit bouncy, with non-uniform widths and spacing that preserve a natural hand-drawn cadence while remaining consistently shaped across the set. Numerals are simple and open, matching the same light, flowing construction.
Well-suited to short to medium text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, social media graphics, lifestyle packaging, and pull quotes. It also works nicely for headings and accents paired with a simple sans for body text.
The overall tone feels approachable and conversational, like neat marker or brush-pen notes. Its looping capitals and buoyant movement add a cheerful, informal warmth that reads as personal rather than formal or corporate.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of cursive handwriting while keeping forms clean and repeatable for digital typesetting. The narrow proportions, looping details, and soft terminals aim to deliver a light, personable signature-like feel without sacrificing basic legibility.
Uppercase forms are tall and expressive, often built from single, continuous strokes that create distinctive entry/exit swashes. Lowercase maintains clear silhouettes with modest counters and smooth joins, supporting word-shape recognition even with a lively baseline and handwritten irregularities.
