A tall, slender handwritten script with a fine, even stroke and occasional pressure-like swell at curves and terminals. Letterforms are mostly unconnected, relying on a consistent upright rhythm and narrow bowls, with long ascenders and descenders creating a lot of vertical movement. Curves are open and elastic, crossbars and joins are simplified, and several capitals feature oversized, looping construction that contrasts with the compact lowercase. Overall spacing feels loose and organic, reinforcing a sketch-like, pen-drawn texture.
Best suited to short display settings where the tall, looping forms can be appreciated—headlines, poster titles, greeting cards, and quote graphics. It can add a handcrafted tone to packaging accents or social media artwork, particularly when used at larger sizes with generous leading.
The font conveys a playful, offbeat personality—lighthearted and slightly eccentric rather than formal. Its airy lines and looping capitals feel whimsical and personal, like quick handwritten notes or imaginative titles.
The design appears intended to capture an expressive, handwritten look with heightened verticality and characterful capitals, prioritizing personality and gesture over strict regularity. It emphasizes a light, airy presence and a distinctive rhythm for attention-grabbing display use.
Capitals are especially distinctive and tall, with exaggerated loops and narrow counters that read as decorative initials. Numerals share the same thin, hand-drawn quality and simplified geometry, keeping the set cohesive while retaining natural irregularities typical of handwriting.
