A slanted handwritten script with smooth, pen-like strokes and gently tapered terminals. Letterforms are compact and narrow, with a lively baseline and modest stroke modulation that keeps the texture light and quick. Uppercase characters are tall and simplified, often built from single flowing strokes, while lowercase forms use small bowls and tight counters, producing an overall delicate rhythm. Spacing is variable and organic, and joins appear selective—some letters connect while others break—reinforcing a natural handwritten cadence.
It works best for short to medium display text where a human, signature-like tone is desirable—invites, cards, boutique packaging, pull quotes, and social graphics. The narrow, light texture also suits tight layouts and headline-style lines, while longer passages may benefit from generous size and line spacing.
The font feels informal and personable, like a neat note written with a fine pen. Its quick curves and looping gestures add a playful liveliness, while the tall capitals and restrained contrast lend a touch of understated elegance.
The design appears intended to capture a clean, modern cursive handwriting feel—nimble and legible, with just enough irregularity to read as genuinely hand-drawn. Proportions and stroke behavior prioritize a fast, graceful written gesture over rigid typographic uniformity.
Ascenders are prominent and the x-height is notably small, which increases the sense of verticality and makes the lowercase more airy at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simple shapes and slight irregularities that keep them consistent with the script tone.
