A slim, monoline handwritten script with a rightward slant and a tall, willowy build. Strokes stay consistently thin with minimal modulation, while loops and soft hooks shape many joins and terminals. Proportions emphasize long ascenders and descenders over a notably small x-height, giving the line a high, vertical rhythm. Spacing is variable and organic, and the letterforms show a lightly irregular, pen-drawn cadence rather than strict geometric repetition.
Works well for short-to-medium display copy such as quotes, greetings, invitations, and social graphics where a personal handwriting voice is desired. It can also support packaging accents and headings when set at larger sizes to preserve clarity.
The tone feels informal and personable, like quick notes written with a fine pen. Its narrow, airy strokes and looping forms add a playful, slightly whimsical energy without becoming overly decorative. Overall it reads as friendly and spontaneous, suited to expressive, conversational typography.
The design appears intended to capture a quick, elegant handwritten look—fine-pen, narrow, and flowing—while keeping forms simple and repeatable for consistent text setting. It prioritizes an intimate, human feel over rigid uniformity, using loops and tall proportions to create a distinctive rhythm.
In longer text the script maintains a consistent slant and flowing connections, but the very small x-height and slender strokes make it more comfortable at larger sizes or with generous line spacing. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying simple and light with an upright-to-slanted posture that matches the alphabet.
