A tall, lightly drawn handwriting style with a fluid, pen-like stroke and crisp tapers at turns and terminals. Letterforms lean mostly upright and stay narrow, with generous vertical reach in ascenders and descenders and a notably small lowercase body. Strokes alternate between thin hairlines and thicker downstrokes, creating a lively, high-contrast rhythm; curves are smooth and open, and joins are sometimes connected but often broken, reinforcing an informal written texture. Numerals and capitals follow the same narrow, elongated proportions with simple, readable shapes and occasional looped or hooked terminals.
Works well for short to medium text where a friendly handwritten voice is desired—logos, boutique branding, packaging, invitations, greeting cards, and social media graphics. It is especially effective for headlines, names, and pull quotes where the tall, narrow proportions can add elegance without feeling formal.
The overall tone feels relaxed and personable, like quick notes written with a fine brush pen. Its narrow, tall rhythm adds a touch of elegance while the uneven joins and lively stroke contrast keep it approachable and spontaneous.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, natural handwriting with a pen-brush contrast, balancing legibility with a casual, expressive cadence. Its narrow, tall proportions suggest an aim to fit longer words into tight spaces while keeping a distinctive handwritten character.
Capitals are prominent and expressive, standing taller than the lowercase and helping headlines feel animated. Spacing and stroke continuity vary slightly across letters, which reads as intentional hand variation rather than strict geometric regularity.
