A monoline, handwritten script with a gentle rightward slant and slim, elongated proportions. Strokes are smooth and rounded with frequent looped terminals and occasional lifted joins that keep the rhythm lively rather than strictly continuous. Capitals are tall and simplified with open bowls and soft curves, while lowercase forms stay compact with short ascenders/descenders and minimal internal contrast. Overall spacing feels light and breathable, giving the letters a buoyant, sketch-like clarity in words.
Works well for short display settings where a friendly handwritten voice is desired: greeting cards, invitations, social media graphics, labels, and light packaging. It also suits pull quotes, headings, and signature-style accents when paired with a more neutral text face for longer reading.
The font reads as approachable and playful, with a relaxed, personal tone typical of quick pen lettering. Its looped gestures and easy curves convey warmth and informality, suited to upbeat, conversational messaging rather than formal typography.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of casual pen script while remaining clean and readable in connected word shapes. The tall capitals, looped strokes, and airy spacing suggest an emphasis on charm and personality for headline and accent use.
Capitals stand out with taller, more calligraphic gestures (notably rounded forms like O/Q and looped entries), creating a decorative initial-cap feel in mixed-case text. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic with simple, open shapes and rounded turns, maintaining consistency with the letterforms.
